Flight compensation TUIfly:
Gran Canaria — Munich

Get your TUIfly flight compensation for the route Gran Canaria - Munich

From Gran Canaria Airport airport, your departure with TUIfly to Munich 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 3 254 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 TUIfly Gran Canaria - Munich is eligible?

The compensation for flight LPA-MUC is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If TUIfly sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Gran Canaria Airport, the 400 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for TUIfly to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your TUIfly compensation

A work stoppage of TUIfly crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.

A strike by weather services at Gran Canaria Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which TUIfly has no control.

What are your rights at Gran Canaria 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 Gran Canaria Airport, TUIfly must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Gran Canaria Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from TUIfly?

Getting justice against carrier TUIfly requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.

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 Gran Canaria to Munich International Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against TUIfly on your smartphone.

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 Gran Canaria - Munich line.

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.
