EU261, what has Blocks Off time got to do with it?
(Pilots perspective)
I'm not getting this subject. Given ATC slot restrictions (CTOT), my company wants us to go to a remote stand as soon as possible so we can start the Blocks Off time ASAP.. Aparrently this helps avoid EU261 compensation in those tight cases. Can someone expain to me how this might be possible given that EU261 is mainly due where the problem was within the airline's control (tech, IT problems, etc).

Thanks
