Claim and compensation for flight Transavia Holland Villafranca - Amsterdam

If your trip departing from Verona / Villafranca Airport and arriving at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol operated by Transavia Holland was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 889 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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.

Did you know? Even if Transavia Holland is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Verona / Villafranca Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Transavia Holland Villafranca - Amsterdam is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Transavia Holland offers you a voucher for your Villafranca - Amsterdam flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

Also note that the distance of 889 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
