was the 3 hours a clarification where the term delay has been abused to mean more than 3 days?
If so its probably not retrospective just clarifying a term.
If it is a significant change that would change the game in a big way then it can't be retrospective (like BN66 / IR35) but if its like the VAT man disallowing £10 worth of Dowe Egeberts annually as its more expensive then Nescafe then most businesses should suck it up.

However, it's being trumpeted as retrospective, which on Watchdog, they described as "Good News".

This does not appear to be retrospective legislation, more like a reinforcement of existing rules. Having be delayed six hours last year, I could not get a even a coffee out of the airline. They will do anything to avoid paying up.
I do think the rules should also apply to train companies. Eurostar being the worst. If you are delayed on a late train from Brussels, the canteen (very poor Belgian cr@p) closes and you can't even get a drink of water!

Flight delay compensation to be applied retrospectively. Wrong or right?
But only as I was delayed for 2 days in Kuwait 8 years ago and haven't been delayed since
