Didn't Arthur resist the Veela at the World Cup by covering his ears
during their songs? I vaguely remember him telling Ron and Harry to
cover their ears [sorry, no books here at work, so I can't check].
If so, that could explain how Arthur (and everybody else in the
stadium) were able to resist the Veela on that night.
Whereas, the effects of Fleur's Veelishness can be explained by
Harry's superior strength of will, as others have said here. Or
perhaps, because she's only half-Veela, she doesn't have the
strength to effect large groups of people and instead focuses on one
target. I don't remember any instance in canon where Fleur effects
(in that way) more than one person at a time? Is there?
