LGW to DLM: distance bands, operating airlines, connection choices and disruption evidence for this direction of travel.
Examples, not a daily timetable. Confirm the operating airline, airports and stops on your booking.
The great-circle distance between LGW and DLM is approximately 2,792 km, in the 1,500–3,500 km band. This endpoint calculation does not add detours. For a through connection, check the original departure and last ticketed destination before selecting a compensation band.
Dalaman (DLM) serves this Gatwick route. Bodrum (BJV) or Antalya (AYT) on a replacement document is an airport change, not another name for Dalaman. For a package transfer, record the agreed onward destination and the new pickup arrangement rather than using the hotel arrival as an unexplained flight time.
LGW departure puts this direction within UK261's territorial scope on any operating airline. That does not establish payment: arrival delay, cancellation notice, replacement timings and the proven cause still matter. Assess DLM–LGW separately; a return ticket does not make both directions identical.
easyJet operates through more than one legal company. Read that company from the flight confirmation before assessing the Turkey-origin return. If a cancellation leads to a London arrival at another airport, agree transport back to Gatwick or another destination and retain its receipts alongside the replacement boarding pass.
At Gatwick, North and South are separate terminals joined by a shuttle. The railway station is at South Terminal, so a train departure and an airline departure do not necessarily start in the same building.
