Get your Travel Service flight compensation for the route Funchal - Prague

From Madeira Airport airport, your departure with Travel Service to Prague didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 3 194 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Travel Service to pay you financial compensation.

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 Travel Service Funchal - Prague is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Ruzyn? International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Travel Service owes you 400 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Madeira Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.

What are the conditions for Travel Service to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Travel Service compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Travel Service staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Madeira Airport, Travel Service must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

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

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