How to know if the flight TOM Larnaca - London is eligible?
For an TOM flight from Larnaca to London, schedule adherence is a duty of result. A delay of 3 hours activates the right to {financial compensation|the 400€ payout}.
The indemnity also covers overbooking cases. If TOM overbooked the flight and you were left behind at Larnaca International Airport, the 400€ payout is owed by right.
What are the conditions for TOM 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 TOM (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Larnaca, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your TOM compensation
The CJEU has definitively ruled: staff strikes are not force majeure for carriers. This precedent is authoritative across all 27 EU member states.
A strike by ATC services at Larnaca International Airport or European ATC is an external cause over which TOM has no control.
What are your rights at Larnaca airport in case of prolonged wait?
An often-forgotten point: the right to care applies even {in extraordinary circumstances|when force majeure is invoked|when the 400€ indemnity is not owed}. Even if TOM is exempt from the payout, care is still owed.
Remember to request a delay certificate from TOM staff at Larnaca International Airport. This document is indispensable for your claim if you need to prove the delay.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from TOM?
Get organised: capture the information screens at Larnaca International Airport indicating the cancellation, keep your expense receipts and note flight numbers.
Partner legal platforms have technology to audit TOM's real data and disprove false weather excuses.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
The irony: the longer TOM stalls paying your 400€, the more the total amount can increase with interest. Experts know this to speed up settlement.
By opting for a platform with no upfront costs, you have nothing to lose. If the 400€ case fails, you pay nothing. It's that simple.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Don't take at face value TOM's email claiming that Larnaca's airport was blocked by snow without consulting certified METAR data.
As a last resort, it is court action that often unlocks payment. TOM will almost always choose to pay the 400€ rather than face lawyer fees for a case doomed to fail in court.
