Refund and compensation Travel Service: route Prague to Barcelona
The PRG - BCN route operated by Travel Service experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 358 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.

- Departure airport: Ruzyn? International Airport (PRG)
- Arrival airport: Barcelona International Airport (BCN)
- Flight distance: 1 358 km (~1h42)

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 Travel Service.
How to know if the flight Travel Service Prague - Barcelona is eligible?
To determine if your trip between Prague and Barcelona entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Prague airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Travel Service (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Prague, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
