Get your Transavia France flight compensation for the route Dubrovnik - Birmingham
From Dubrovnik Airport airport, your departure with Transavia France to Birmingham didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 853 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
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: Dubrovnik Airport (DBV)
- Arrival airport: Birmingham International Airport (BHX)
- Flight distance: 1 853 km (~2h19)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
How to know if the flight Transavia France Dubrovnik - Birmingham is eligible?
The compensation for flight DBV-BHX is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Dubrovnik Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.
What are the conditions for Transavia France to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Birmingham.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Dubrovnik airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Transavia France (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Dubrovnik, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Transavia France compensation
Don't be fooled by Transavia France's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Transavia France is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 400 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Dubrovnik airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Transavia France must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Dubrovnik.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Dubrovnik Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from Transavia France?
The amicable route with Transavia France to recover 400 € often fails without a technical and legal file.
To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Transavia France.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Transavia France. An expert can reduce this time by half.
A collective action on the Transavia France flight from Dubrovnik can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Dubrovnik - Birmingham line.
If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
