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 Barcelona (BCN) 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).
