Flight compensation Transavia Holland:
Groningen — Faro

Refund and compensation Transavia Holland: route Groningen to Faro

The GRQ - FAO route operated by Transavia Holland experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

By taking off from Eelde Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 2 115 km determines your legal compensation level.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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.

This is not a commercial gesture from Transavia Holland, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Transavia Holland Groningen - Faro is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Faro. If Transavia Holland made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Faro Airport, your claim is legitimate.

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 Faro.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Groningen airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Transavia Holland (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
