Does EU 261 apply when connecting in US from EU?
A friend is returning home to the US from the EU with a connection at JFK. There was no problem with the flight on the first leg to JFK. But when she arrived at JFK she learned her connecting flight home was cancelled. I'm assuming she booked the trip as a single ticket through to her final destination.
Is she due any compensation under EU 261? Does it apply at all in this situation? Or does EU261 stop applying as soon as you land outside the EU?
