Flight compensation TCX:
Larnaca — London

Claim and compensation for flight TCX Larnaca - London

The LCA - 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 Larnaca International Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 3 247 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.

Did you know? Even if TCX is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Larnaca International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

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

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

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Larnaca, the regulation applies in the same way.

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 Larnaca airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to TCX (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your TCX compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Larnaca - London trip is due to an internal strike within TCX, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

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

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

Don't buy your food without first asking TCX for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

Your forced stay at Larnaca shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your LCA-LGW trip.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from TCX?

For your Larnaca - London trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by TCX staff at the Larnaca International Airport counter during the incident.

This is where lawyers and specialized services come in. By going through an expert partner, you check your flight instantly and delegate the entire procedure to recover your 400 € without stress.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Larnaca to London Gatwick Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against TCX on your smartphone.

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

Don't take TCX's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company TCX will always prefer to compromise and pay the 400 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
