At Tirana International Airport Mother Teresa, these protections apply to flights operated by EU airlines, even though Albania is not an EU member state. If you are travelling with an EU carrier from Tirana and your flight is disrupted, UK Regulation 261 (UK 261) requires the airline to provide assistance such as meals, refreshments, and hotel accommodation when necessary.
Whether compensation is available depends on the cause of the disruption and the length of the delay. Under UK Regulation 261 (UK 261), airlines are not liable for delays caused by circumstances outside their control, but they are still expected to act reasonably and provide assistance to passengers when disruption occurs.
