Procedure: Transavia France flight compensation from Budapest to Paris
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Budapest and Paris with Transavia France? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 260 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
Why are you entitled to 250 €?
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: Budapest Listz Ferenc international Airport (BUD)
- Arrival airport: Paris-Orly Airport (ORY)
- Flight distance: 1 260 km (~1h35)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.
