What are the conditions for Transavia Holland to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Thira.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Amsterdam airport.

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Amsterdam, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Transavia Holland compensation
A work stoppage by Transavia Holland's crews is considered inherent to the ordinary activity of the carrier and is no longer a valid justification to refuse the 400€.
Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to ground services, Transavia Holland is exempted from the obligation to pay the 400€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Amsterdam airport in case of prolonged wait?
The right to care is a crucial provision of the EU text. Regardless of the 400€ question, if the delay drags on at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, Transavia Holland is obliged to provide coupons for food and drink.
In case of a next-day flight delay, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers to and from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol are fully at the airline's expense.
