Flight delay compensation due to weather (EU)
score:4
Accepted answer
You can attempt to claim compensation under EU261 for the flight from Jersey to the UK, but if EasyJet claims the cancellation is due to either meteorological or air traffic control management (such as reduced slot available, as suggested by @user16259) then you face a significant uphill battle, as EasyJet are not the only airline cancelling flights into Gatwick at the moment.
I wouldn't rate the chances of a court case being successful.

I would definitely submit a claim for compensation but would not necessarily take the airline to court if they refuse. The Civil Aviation Authority perhaps? They may save your friend a good amount of court expenses.
As others have said, extraordinary circumstances (e.g. bad weather, control tower instructions) may have been the reason for the delay. If so, then your friend would not be entitled to compensation. The CAA would probably be the best institution to determine this.
