Recover up to 400€ for Ryanair flight Porto → Tenerife
Denied boarding on Ryanair Porto → Tenerife qualifies you for up to 400€. Check how to claim.
The legal coverage under CE 261/2004 applies by law when Ryanair breaches its duties on the 1 634 km route from Porto to Tenerife.
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: Porto (OPO)
- Arrival airport: Tenerife South Airport (TFS)
- Flight distance: 1 634 km (~2h03)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
This cornerstone regulation of EU transport law protects over 900 million journeys annually. Despite this, the vast majority never claim due to ignorance.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Porto - Tenerife is eligible?
Note your actual arrival time at Tenerife. If Ryanair made you wait more than three hours at Tenerife South Airport, your entitlement is confirmed.
Even if Ryanair offers a replacement flight, the 400€ indemnity remains owed if the final delay at Tenerife is over the 180-minute threshold.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Tenerife.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Porto airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Porto, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
The CJEU has definitively ruled: staff strikes are not force majeure for carriers. This precedent is authoritative across all 27 EU member states.
Even if the 400€ are not payable due to an external strike at Porto, assistance (meals/hotel) stays the responsibility of Ryanair. This is a separate right.
What are your rights at Porto airport in case of prolonged wait?
If Porto turns into your involuntary base because of Ryanair, the law stipulates that your essential requirements must be covered by the carrier. For a medium-haul flight, the right to care kicks in after 3 hours.
Even in force majeure cases, the right to assistance at Porto still applies. The hotel must be provided if Ryanair delays your flight overnight.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from Ryanair?
