Calculated from Quiescence.eu flight tracking, measured on arrival, over all movements (departures + arrivals). “Delayed >5 min” is every movement that arrived late; “EU261 3 h+” is the subset that arrived three hours or more late — the compensation threshold; “Avg delay” is the mean arrival delay of the movements that arrived late. Indicative.

Bar chart of Amsterdam (AMS) for the last 7, 14, 30 and 90 days: share of movements delayed more than 5 minutes, share delayed 3 hours or more (EU261) and share cancelled.
Each period shows the share of tracked movements that arrived more than 5 minutes late, the subset that arrived three hours or more late (EU261 compensation territory), and the share that was cancelled. Complete days only, up to yesterday; recalculated once a day in the late morning (Central European time).

Frequently asked questions

How much am I owed for a delayed flight at this airport?

Between €250 and €600 per passenger, depending on the flight distance, provided you reach your destination 3 hours or more late and the cause was the airline's responsibility. The calculator gives you an estimated figure.

What if the delay was caused by bad weather at the airport?

Severe weather is usually treated as an extraordinary circumstance, so there may be no compensation. Even so, you keep the right to care and to a refund, and it is worth checking.
