Flight compensation Transavia France:
Malaga — London

Claim and compensation for flight Transavia France Malaga - London

The AGP - LTN route operated by Transavia France experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 721 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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 Malaga, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Transavia France Malaga - London is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at London. If Transavia France made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at London Luton Airport, your claim is legitimate.

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Malaga, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Transavia France to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Transavia France compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Transavia France staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Malaga airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 400 € will not be due.

What are your rights at Malaga airport in case of prolonged wait?

If Malaga airport becomes your temporary residence because of Transavia France, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

Your forced stay at Malaga shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your AGP-LTN trip.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Transavia France?

For your Malaga - London trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Transavia France staff at the Malaga counter during the incident.

If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 400 € arrive in your bank account.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

On the AGP-LTN line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Transavia France's legal department.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Malaga - London section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

The use of complex legal jargon by Transavia France is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 400 €.

DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Transavia France is often more striking.
