    My week in the Canarys has been delayed due to a technical issue with the aircraft . It looks like we will be delayed by at least 24 hours.

    Does anyone know what rights we have?
    I am starting to get a little bit stressed by the whole experience.

    Take a look here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_261/2004

    From my own experience, they will always always always wiggle out of it some way or another though.

    We are on plane now( 23 hours late ) but some passengers have not shown up so it looks like they will have to get their bags off.
