Flight compensation Transavia Holland:
Amsterdam — Valencia

How to be compensated by Transavia Holland on the Amsterdam (AMS) - Valencia (VLC) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Transavia Holland did not respect its scheduled times for your Amsterdam - Valencia flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 481 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Transavia Holland to pay you financial compensation.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

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.

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 Holland Amsterdam - Valencia is eligible?

For an Transavia Holland flight from Amsterdam to Valencia, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.

• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Amsterdam airport.

The impact of a strike on your Transavia Holland compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Valencia Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Transavia Holland must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Amsterdam.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Amsterdam Airport Schiphol terminal is also included in the legal package due by Transavia Holland.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

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