So ... have you met the smoke monster?

Wow.

That episode is 7 years old, so it's not really a spoiler anymore.

More like European laws for the win. If your flight departs Europe, airlines have to follow European regulation 261/2004, even if they are not Europe-based companies.

Edit: Also, Europeans companies departing from outside Europe have to follow these regulations. But if you fly Air Canada from Toronto to Frankfurt, no dice.
