Flight compensation TUIfly:
Hannover — Kos

TUIfly passengers Hannover-Kos: what to do to file a claim

If your flight from Hannover Airport to Kos Airport flown by TUIfly was impacted, legal remedies exist when dealing with the airline.

Seize this entitlement: the TUIfly flight Hannover → Kos (2 209 km) entitles you to 400€ compensation under EU regulation.

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.

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from TUIfly, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight TUIfly Hannover - Kos is eligible?

Three criteria are required to establish your right to 400€: {delay exceeds 3h at Kos|flight cancelled less than 14 days before|boarding denied} — and {the cause is attributable to|TUIfly is responsible for|the fault lies with} TUIfly.

An class change doesn't change your right to 400€ if the initial disruption is established under Regulation 261. The intermediate indemnity remains unchanged regardless of reclassification.

What are the conditions for TUIfly to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Kos.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Hannover 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 strike action by TUIfly's flight staff is deemed part of the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400€.

A strike by air traffic control at Hannover Airport or Eurocontrol is an independent circumstance over which TUIfly cannot act.

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

Once the delay reaches the regulatory threshold, i.e. 3 hours for flights between 1500 and 3500 km, TUIfly must automatically provide the regulatory care to all passenger{s} waiting at Hannover.

In case of a next-day flight delay, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers to and from Hannover Airport are fully at the airline's expense.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from TUIfly?

It is strongly recommended to keep your TUIfly boarding pass and all communications regarding the delay at Hannover Airport. These documents are crucial for supporting your case.

If you don't have the time for lengthy email exchanges, delegating your claim to specialists is the fastest way to see your 400€ credited in your account.

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

Don't give up faced with TUIfly's silence. It's a deliberate tactic to discourage claimants. Data confirms that over 80% of passengers give up along the way.

Imagine: while you go about your life, lawyers work to secure your 400€ for the TUIfly Hannover→Kos flight. That's the benefit of a turnkey service.

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

Hitting a wall or getting a standardised negative response is unfortunately the experience of most passengers who act without support for the Hannover → Kos route.
