Is a flight from Larnaca covered?
Yes. Larnaca is in the EU, EEA or Switzerland, so the regulation applies to every flight departing from it — whichever airline operates it.
What you can claim
The amount is set by the distance of the flight, not the price of the ticket. From Larnaca, that usually means:
| Destination | Distance | Band |
|---|---|---|
| Dubai (DXB) | 2,343 km | €400 |
| Frankfurt (FRA) | 2,637 km | €400 |
| Barcelona (BCN) | 2,834 km | €400 |
| Paris (CDG) | 2,981 km | €400 |
| Amsterdam (AMS) | 2,991 km | €400 |
| London (LHR) | 3,277 km | €400 |
What to do at Larnaca
- Ask the airline to confirm the reason for the delay or cancellation in writing.
- Keep your boarding passes, tickets and every receipt — for meals, taxis and hotels you had to arrange yourself.
- Insist on the care you are entitled to: meals and drinks in proportion to the wait, two free communications, and accommodation if you are stranded overnight.
- Do not accept a voucher where you are entitled to a cash refund.
How we enforce it
Flightright assesses the claim, corresponds with the airline and — where it refuses — takes the case to court at our own risk. There is nothing to pay unless the claim succeeds.
