AV 121 Flight Delayed: Compensation

If you are experiencing a flight delay with your Avianca flight AV 121 flying out of London en route to Bogota, there might be flight delay compensation that you could be entitled to. However you should bear in mind that the eligibility depends on the specific details of the disruption. Regulation EU EC261/ 2004 protects the rights to monetary compensation for every passenger in cases of delay, no matter how much the original ticket cost and whether or not it was purchased by you or by somebody else on your behalf.

That being said, it should be noted that the EU Regulation obliges the Avianca to pay compensation only in cases where the delay is longer than 3 hours. The amount of time you are delayed is determined by how late you arrive at your final destination, not by how long you wait at the airport. The number of kilometres you have to travel between Bogota and London will be the most determining point in establishing the amount of monetary compensation you could be claiming for your flight AV 121.

Tip: In cases relating to connecting flight delay compensation when your journey consists of two flights booked under the same reservation number, you can claim compensation for the distance between the London and the Bogota.

Our team at AirAdvisor has developed online services that can help you check if you are eligible for compensation from Avianca for your flight AV 121, and how much compensation you are owed. Our free flight checker is very useful and can help you to ensure getting compensated if your circumstances meet the criteria.

AV 121 Flight Cancelled: Compensation

Given that the specific circumstances of your case qualify, you might be able to submit a claim of 600 € if your flight AV 121 departing from London to Bogota ends up being cancelled. Passengers who have their flights cancelled by Avianca are entitled to claim up to 600€ in compensation. Regulation EC 261/2004 grants this right to alleviate the stress, inconvenience and time loss caused by the cancellation.

The legislation requires that your flight AV 121 be delayed by at least two hours upon arrival at your final destination, so that you can demand compensation from the Avianca.

Many of our clients have told us that Avianca often denies their requests for flight cancellation compensation when they try to handle it themselves, without any professional legal help. Fortunately that isn’t likely to happen with AirAdvisor claims. Use our online tool to check your eligibility for flight AV 121 compensation and send in a claim request to increase your chances of getting compensated without any extra risks.

AirAdvisor operates on a no-win, no-fee rule, and ensures that there is no financial risk involved for you when entrusting us to process the claim for you.

AV 121 Flight Cancelled: Right to Claim a Refund

If your flight with Avianca gets cancelled, they are required by law to satisfy your request for a ticket refund and to reimburse you for any additional expenses that were a direct result of the disruption of your AV 121 flight. The Avianca is responsible for reimbursing you for the cost of new tickets if you have to rebook and purchase an alternative flight to your destination. In addition to that, if the disruption causes you to wait for the next flight overnight, the Avianca must provide you with a budget to pay for a hotel stay.

Bear in mind that if you would like to claim for any additional expenses, you should keep all of the original receipts and have digital copies of them if possible. Such records would help the lawyers make a stronger compensation case for you. The legal team of AirAdvisor has extensive experience in dealing with such cases against Avianca. Many airlines may not respond to compensation requests from passengers without legal representation. However, Avianca is more likely to respond to claims submitted by a company with strong legal expertise and a network of experienced international lawyers, who are willing to take cases to court if necessary.

If you are offered a voucher as compensation for an unused ticket, we strongly recommend that you do not accept it. Vouchers and credits from Avianca usually have a lot of limitations, including an expiration date, which can prevent passengers from being able to use them at all. The vouchers make it easier for airlines to avoid dealing with delays and cancellations, as they know that many people don't use them.

Flight cancelled last minute due to electrical fault. Had to fly on replacement service the next day.


Laura from United Kingdom (Avianca AV 121 Flight delay)
August 8, 2022, 11:24 am

The flight was over 11 hours delayed and meant I missed my next flight from Colombia. I arrived at 14:40pm when I was supposed to arrive at 03:29am. The airline gave no details except for "due to factors that affect our operation". I was offered no compensation at the time, including no hotel for the overnight delay or any food. This inconvenienced me hugely and I lost money because I then had to change the next flight I was supposed to get from Bogota to Cartagena. The airline made me pay $30 for changing this later flight.


Wayne from United Kingdom (Avianca AV 121 Flight delay)
November 22, 2022, 5:32 pm

My flight on 27 August 2022 at 22:40H was delayed until 28th August at 12:00. flight delay was given as a medical emergency. I had to spend one extra night in London and arrived 13 hours late in Bogota. All I got from the airline was a letter about delay once I arrived at the airport as I booked an extra night at the hotel I was staying at in London the night before. There was no point in going to the airport until Sunday morning as I found out about the delay when I went to check in online before I left the hotel I was already staying at.
