5.4. Extraordinary circumstances on a previous flight with the same aircraft
In order to be exempted from its obligation to compensate passengers in the event of a long delay or cancellation of a flight, an operating air carrier may rely on an extraordinary circumstance that affected a previous flight which it operated using the same aircraft, if there is a direct causal link between the occurrence of this circumstance and the delay or cancellation of the subsequent flight ( 151).
In another case, the Court has specified that in case of a long delay at arrival, an operating air carrier may rely on an extraordinary circumstance that affected not this delayed flight but a previous flight operated by this air carrier using the same aircraft at aircraft turnaround three flights back in the rotation sequence of the aircraft, if there is a direct causal link between the occurrence of the extraordinary circumstance and the long delay at arrival of the subsequent flight ( 152).
