Flight compensation Transavia Holland:
Ibiza — Rotterdam

Legal right to compensation: Transavia Holland flight between Ibiza and Rotterdam

The IBZ - RTM 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 Ibiza Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 474 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Transavia Holland.

How to know if the flight Transavia Holland Ibiza - Rotterdam is eligible?

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

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Ibiza, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Transavia Holland to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Rotterdam.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Ibiza airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Transavia Holland (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Transavia Holland compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Ibiza - Rotterdam 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 Ibiza, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Transavia Holland.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Ibiza 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.

Even in extraordinary circumstances, this right to assistance at Ibiza remains valid. The hotel is due if Transavia Holland offsets your flight by one night.

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

Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Ibiza - Rotterdam line.

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.
