Get your Transavia Holland flight compensation for the route Bologna - Eindhoven
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Bologna and Eindhoven with Transavia Holland? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 885 km of flight, the company Transavia Holland is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport (BLQ)
- Arrival airport: Eindhoven Airport (EIN)
- Flight distance: 885 km (~1h06)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
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 Holland Bologna - Eindhoven is eligible?
The compensation for flight BLQ-EIN is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
Keeping your travel documents for the Transavia Holland BLQ-EIN flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Bologna.
What are the conditions for Transavia Holland to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Eindhoven.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Bologna airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Transavia Holland (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Bologna, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Transavia Holland compensation
Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Bologna - Eindhoven trip is due to an internal strike within Transavia Holland, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.
Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Bologna, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Transavia Holland.
What are your rights at Bologna airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport, Transavia Holland must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
It is not uncommon for a claim for 250 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.
If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
