- Arrival airport: Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS)
- Flight distance: 3 183 km (~3h59)

How to know if the flight Transavia Holland Gran Canaria - Amsterdam is eligible?
To determine if your trip between Gran Canaria and Amsterdam entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.
Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.
What are the conditions for Transavia Holland to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Amsterdam.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Gran Canaria airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Transavia Holland (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Gran Canaria, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Transavia Holland compensation
The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Transavia Holland staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.
The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Gran Canaria - Amsterdam flight.
What are your rights at Gran Canaria airport in case of prolonged wait?
During these long hours of waiting in the Gran Canaria Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.
Your forced stay at Gran Canaria shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your LPA-AMS trip.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from Transavia Holland?
For your Gran Canaria - Amsterdam trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Transavia Holland staff at the Gran Canaria Airport counter during the incident.
By entrusting your case regarding flight LPA-AMS to our experts, you benefit from the 'No Win, No Fee' principle.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
A frequent question concerns processing times. A claim filed directly with Transavia Holland customer service can take several weeks or even months before getting a response.
The advantage of delegating your claim to a major LegalTech player is that they can speed up this process thanks to automated formal notice systems and the constant threat of legal proceedings.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The use of complex legal jargon by Transavia Holland is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 400 €.
A claim organization will know exactly how to counter the airline's arguments, having access to certified meteorological histories and traffic reports from Gran Canaria Airport airport to prove their faults.
