Refund and compensation Wizz Air Ukraine: route Larnaca to Kiev

The LCA - IEV route operated by Wizz Air Ukraine 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 1 745 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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Larnaca International Airport (LCA)
  • Arrival airport: Kiev Zhuliany International Airport (IEV)
  • Flight distance: 1 745 km (~2h11)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

This is not a commercial gesture from Wizz Air Ukraine, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Wizz Air Ukraine Larnaca - Kiev is eligible?

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

Also note that the distance of 1 745 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 400 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Wizz Air Ukraine to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Kiev.
  • 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 Wizz Air Ukraine (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 Wizz Air Ukraine compensation

A work stoppage of Wizz Air Ukraine crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.

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

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Larnaca International 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.

Even in extraordinary circumstances, this right to assistance at Larnaca remains valid. The hotel is due if Wizz Air Ukraine offsets your flight by one night.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Wizz Air Ukraine?

For your Larnaca - Kiev trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Wizz Air Ukraine staff at the Larnaca International Airport counter during the incident.

By entrusting your case regarding flight LCA-IEV to our experts, you benefit from the 'No Win, No Fee' principle.

A collective action on the Wizz Air Ukraine flight from Larnaca can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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