Flight compensation TCX:
Gran Canaria — London

Claim and compensation for flight TCX Gran Canaria - London

The LPA - LGW route operated by TCX experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

By taking off from Gran Canaria Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 2 879 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like TCX.

How to know if the flight TCX Gran Canaria - London is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if TCX offers you a voucher for your Gran Canaria - London flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for TCX to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at London.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Gran Canaria airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to TCX (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your TCX compensation

Don't be fooled by TCX's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Gran Canaria, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for TCX.

What are your rights at Gran Canaria airport in case of prolonged wait?

During these long hours of waiting in the Gran Canaria Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Gran Canaria Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.
