The impact of a strike on your Flybe compensation
If your Flybe flight from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.
On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.
What are your rights at Amsterdam airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, Flybe must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Flybe?
Getting justice against carrier Flybe requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
Don't fill out complex forms on the Flybe website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
A frequent question concerns processing times. A claim filed directly with Flybe customer service can take several weeks or even months before getting a response.
Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Flybe systems.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The first refusal from Flybe should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.
For your 250 €, don't compromise with Flybe without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Amsterdam.
