Claim and compensation for flight Travel Service Prague - Funchal
Your claim for compensation for the Travel Service flight from Prague to Funchal deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.
Given the route between Prague and Funchal (3 194 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Travel Service.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Ruzyn? International Airport (PRG)
- Arrival airport: Madeira Airport (FNC)
- Flight distance: 3 194 km (~3h60)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
This is not a commercial gesture from Travel Service, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.
How to know if the flight Travel Service Prague - Funchal is eligible?
Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Travel Service offers you a voucher for your Prague - Funchal flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.
Also note that the distance of 3 194 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 400 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.
What are the conditions for Travel Service to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Funchal.
-
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.
The impact of a strike on your Travel Service compensation
A work stoppage of Travel Service crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Travel Service is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 400 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Prague airport in case of prolonged wait?
If Ruzyn? International Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Travel Service, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.
Your forced stay at Prague shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your PRG-FNC trip.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from Travel Service?
For your Prague - Funchal trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Travel Service staff at the Ruzyn? International Airport counter during the incident.
If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 400 € arrive in your bank account.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Prague to Madeira Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.
A collective action on the Travel Service flight from Prague can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
It is not uncommon for a claim for 400 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.
If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
