Flight compensation Transavia Holland:
Zakynthos — Amsterdam

Get your Transavia Holland flight compensation for the route Zakynthos - Amsterdam

From Dionysios Solomos Airport airport, your departure with Transavia Holland to Amsterdam didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 2 046 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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.

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

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

For an Transavia Holland flight from Zakynthos to Amsterdam, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

The impact of a strike on your Transavia Holland compensation

Don't be fooled by Transavia Holland's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Zakynthos, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Transavia Holland.

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