Claim and compensation for flight TUIfly Gran Canaria - Stuttgart
Your claim for compensation for the TUIfly flight from Gran Canaria to Stuttgart deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.
Given the route between Gran Canaria and Stuttgart (3 125 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by TUIfly.
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: Gran Canaria Airport (LPA)
- Arrival airport: Stuttgart Airport (STR)
- Flight distance: 3 125 km (~3h54)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
This is not a commercial gesture from TUIfly, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.
How to know if the flight TUIfly Gran Canaria - Stuttgart is eligible?
To determine if your trip between Gran Canaria and Stuttgart entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.
Also note that the distance of 3 125 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 TUIfly to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Stuttgart.
-
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...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Gran Canaria, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
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?
During these long hours of waiting in the Gran Canaria 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.
Even in extraordinary circumstances, this right to assistance at Gran Canaria remains valid. The hotel is due if TUIfly offsets your flight by one night.
