LOT Flight LO164 Delay Compensation: Marrakesh to Warsaw Claim Guide
LOT Flight LO164 usually refers to the direct Marrakesh to Warsaw service. If you are searching for delay compensation for LO164, the key legal question is usually whether you arrived in Warsaw 3 or more hours late. If you want the fastest path to an eligibility check, start on ClaimWinger's main claim page.
Quick answer
If LOT Flight LO164 arrived in Warsaw 3 or more hours late, EU261 can often point to EUR 400 per passenger. This is because LO164 departs from Marrakesh outside the EU, but it is operated by LOT as an EU carrier and usually falls into the EU261 distance band above 1,500 km but below 3,500 km.

Does EU261 apply to LO164 from Marrakesh to Warsaw?
Usually yes. This is the main legal point for LO164. The flight departs from Marrakesh, outside the EU, but it is operated by LOT as an EU carrier and arrives in Warsaw. That usually keeps the route inside EU261 scope.
So if LO164 reached Warsaw at least three hours late and the disruption was within the airline's responsibility, fixed compensation may still be available under EU261.
| LO164 delay scenario | Typical outcome |
|---|---|
| Arrival under 3 hours late | Fixed compensation is usually unavailable |
| Arrival 3+ hours late and airline responsible | Often around EUR 400 per passenger |
| Delay caused by extraordinary circumstances | Care rights may stay, fixed compensation may fail |
| Rerouting kept arrival close to schedule | The amount may be reduced by 50 percent |
Why LO164 is often an EUR 400 route
LO164 is not the classic ultra long-haul case that usually points to EUR 600. Instead, this route is typically treated as falling in the above 1,500 km but below 3,500 km band, which is why the standard EU261 figure is often EUR 400 per passenger.
That detail matters because many travelers assume every return route from outside the EU automatically means EUR 600. On LO164, the more realistic target is usually EUR 400.
Departure delay is not enough on its own
A late pushback from Marrakesh does not automatically create a valid compensation claim. EU261 delay compensation is usually measured at arrival, not departure.
That means the legally important issue is whether LO164 reached Warsaw at least three hours late, or whether time was recovered en route and the final delay dropped below the threshold.
Can LOT reduce compensation after rerouting?
In some situations, yes. If LOT rerouted you and the replacement itinerary still got you to Warsaw within the legal arrival windows, the airline may try to reduce the standard amount by 50 percent.
So the real value of an LO164 claim depends not only on whether there was a disruption, but also on the exact arrival outcome after any replacement flight.
How to check what happened to LOT Flight LO164 today
For live status information, use LOT's official flight status tool and search by flight number plus date. That helps you separate a real long arrival delay from a short operational issue that did not cross the legal threshold.
Evidence checklist for a strong delay claim:
- Boarding pass and booking reference (PNR).
- All messages from LOT (email, SMS, app push).
- Screenshots of the actual arrival time from LOT.com or a third-party tracker.
- Photos of the airport arrivals/departures board.
- Receipts for meals, hotel, and transport — if LOT failed to provide care.
- Tickets for any missed onward connection.
Which ClaimWinger path fits an LO164 delay case?
If the issue was mainly delay, the most direct route is usually ClaimWinger's delayed flight page. If the facts later turn out to involve cancellation or a more complex rerouting problem, the broader main claim form is also a safe starting point.

What happened to LOT Flight LO164 today?
For live operational information about LOT Flight LO164 today, use LOT's official Flight Status page and search by flight number plus date. This page explains compensation rules, not real-time operations.
Is LOT Flight LO164 delayed if it left Marrakesh late?
Not automatically in the legal sense. EU261 delay compensation usually depends on arrival at the final destination, not just a late departure from Marrakesh. The key question is often whether LO164 reached Warsaw at least 3 hours late.
How much compensation can LOT Flight LO164 pay?
LO164 is usually treated as a route above 1,500 km and generally below 3,500 km, so the standard EU261 amount is often EUR 400 per passenger. In some rerouting scenarios the airline may reduce that by 50 percent.
Does EU261 apply to LOT Flight LO164 from Marrakesh to Warsaw?
Usually yes. LO164 departs from outside the EU, but it is operated by LOT, an EU carrier, and arrives in Warsaw. That usually keeps this return route inside EU261 scope.
Can a missed connection after LO164 also be compensated?
Potentially yes, especially if Warsaw was not your final destination and the onward segment was on the same reservation. In that situation, the legally relevant delay may be measured at the final destination shown on the booking.
Check your LO164 delay case
If you want to know whether LO164 points to EUR 400, a reduced amount after rerouting, or no fixed compensation because the final delay was too short, the fastest next step is to run the facts through ClaimWinger's delayed flight form.
