Opinions on this flight delay case?
Hello, Last week I was due to fly from Naples to Manchester, changing in Hamburg. Both flights were with the same airline, Eurowings. I missed the connection due to the flight leaving 2 hours later.

Hi Not sure if I'm on the right board but seemed more appropriate than the main board.
