Flight compensation Austrian Airlines:
Larnaca — Vienna

Get your Austrian Airlines flight compensation for the route Larnaca - Vienna

From Larnaca International Airport airport, your departure with Austrian Airlines to Vienna didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 2 036 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
