Flight compensation Transavia Holland:
Mykonos — Thira

How to be compensated by Transavia Holland on the Mykonos (JMK) - Thira (JTR) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Transavia Holland did not respect its scheduled times for your Mykonos - Thira flight, the law is on your side.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 116 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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Transavia Holland Mykonos - Thira is eligible?

The compensation for flight JMK-JTR is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Mikonos Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.

What are the conditions for Transavia Holland to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Thira.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Mykonos 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

If your Transavia Holland flight from Mikonos Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Mikonos Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Transavia Holland must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Mykonos.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Mikonos Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
