Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. TUIfly must ensure the wellbeing of passengers stuck at Munich. The threshold rises to 3 hours for flights of 1500 to 3500 km.

Your forced stay at Munich should not cost you a single extra cent beyond your original booking for MUC→XRY. For a medium-haul, accommodation costs at Munich can be significant — TUIfly must cover them.

First concrete step: send a formal email to TUIfly's customer service referencing Regulation CE 261/2004 and {the 400€ amount|your specific claim}.

The key advantage: they absorb 100% of the risk and only charge when the 400€ case is won.

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

TUIfly's use of complex legal jargon is often a tactic to push travellers to abandon their 400€. On medium-haul, airlines often refuse initially to filter claims.

For your 400€, don't settle with TUIfly without the advice of a professional who knows the full scope of your claim for Munich→Jerez.
