Flight compensation Transavia France:
Ibiza — Newcastle

Legal right to compensation: Transavia France flight between Ibiza and Newcastle

If your trip departing from Ibiza Airport and arriving at Newcastle Airport operated by Transavia France was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

Given the route between Ibiza and Newcastle (1 812 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Transavia France.

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.

Did you know? Even if Transavia France is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Ibiza Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Transavia France Ibiza - Newcastle is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Ibiza and Newcastle entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Also note that the distance of 1 812 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 400 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Transavia France to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Newcastle.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Ibiza airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Transavia France (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
