If your flight from Eindhoven Airport to Gran Canaria Airport flown by Transavia Holland was impacted, legal remedies exist when dealing with the airline.

Given the distance between Eindhoven and Gran Canaria (3 137 km), CE 261 mandates a statutory payout in case of fault by Transavia Holland. Medium-haul flights attract a substantial indemnity.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

  • Arrival airport: Gran Canaria Airport (LPA)
  • Flight distance: 3 137 km (~3h55)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Transavia Holland, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.
