Flight compensation Transavia France:
Manchester — Tenerife

How to be compensated by Transavia France on the Manchester (MAN) - Tenerife (TFS) line

From Manchester Airport airport, your departure with Transavia France to Tenerife didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 3 048 km of flight, the company Transavia France is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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.

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

How to know if the flight Transavia France Manchester - Tenerife is eligible?

The compensation for flight MAN-TFS is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Manchester 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 Tenerife.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Manchester 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

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Manchester - Tenerife trip is due to an internal strike within Transavia France, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Manchester, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Transavia France.

What are your rights at Manchester 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 Manchester.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Manchester Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Tenerife South Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.
