Claim and compensation for flight Travel Service Rhodos - Prague

The RHO - PRG 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 1 884 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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: Diagoras Airport (RHO)
  • Arrival airport: Ruzyn? International Airport (PRG)
  • Flight distance: 1 884 km (~2h21)
  • 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 Rhodos - Prague is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Travel Service offers you a voucher for your Rhodos - Prague flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.

Also note that the distance of 1 884 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 Prague.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Rhodos airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Travel Service (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Rhodos, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Travel Service compensation

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

A strike by weather services at Diagoras Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Travel Service has no control.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Diagoras Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

Your forced stay at Rhodos shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your RHO-PRG trip.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Travel Service?

For your Rhodos - Prague trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Travel Service staff at the Diagoras Airport counter during the incident.

This is where lawyers and specialized services come in. By going through an expert partner, you check your flight instantly and delegate the entire procedure to recover your 400 € without stress.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Airlines like Travel Service sometimes prioritize cases defended by law firms to avoid late interests.

A collective action on the Travel Service flight from Rhodos can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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

Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Rhodos - Prague line.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Travel Service will always prefer to compromise and pay the 400 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
