Trabzon Airport (TZX) Flight Compensation

Trabzon Airport (TZX) is the Eastern Black Sea's main airport, with its runway right on the coastline. Besides dense domestic traffic to Istanbul and Ankara, tourism traffic grows in summer with flights from Europe and the Gulf countries.

The Black Sea's changeable weather can affect operations from time to time; but not every delay automatically counts as weather-related. Delays and cancellations caused by technical or operational issues can still give rise to compensation.

Flights to and from Trabzon Airport are covered by Turkey's SHY-YOLCU regulation, and EU261 can also apply on Europe-linked services. On eligible flights, compensation ranges from €250 to €600 by distance and can be claimed up to 3 years back.
