Claim and compensation for flight Turkish Airlines Hannover - Istanbul

Your claim for compensation for the Turkish Airlines flight from Hannover to Istanbul deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

By taking off from Hannover Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 900 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Turkish Airlines.

How to know if the flight Turkish Airlines Hannover - Istanbul is eligible?

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

Also note that the distance of 1 900 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.

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Istanbul.
• 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 Turkish Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Turkish Airlines compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Istanbul, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
