The impact of a strike on your Transavia France compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Paris-Orly Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.
The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Catania - Paris flight.
What are your rights at Catania airport in case of prolonged wait?
The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 400 €, if the delay stretches at Catania / Fontanarossa Airport airport, Transavia France is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.
