One of the most common reasons for flight disruptions is flight strikes, which are often initiated by airline staff, an airport itself, or an airline. As a passenger, you should be aware of EU Regulation 261, according to which you might be entitled to compensation of up to 600 Euros.

Learn more to find out how you can get compensation and under what circumstances.

Your Passenger Rights

The good news is that every air traveler is protected by the EU 261 regulation. The EU 261 is a European Union regulation that sets the rules for compensation and assistance for travelers in cases of flight delays and cancellations. Now, let’s take a closer look at passenger rights, according to EU 261/2004:

  • The airline is required to provide travelers with information about their rights.
  • In case of flight cancellation, a passenger has the right to select one of the following options: either a ticket refund or rebooking to the final destination under similar conditions;
  • Passengers can expect to receive food and beverages; they are also entitled to have two free phone calls, e-mails, or faxes.
  • If you decide to reroute, and it involves an overnight stay, the airline is required to provide hotel accommodation, as well as transportation between the airport and the hotel.
  • Compensation from 250 to 600 euros per passenger

When You Are Entitled to Transavia Strike Compensation

Often, Transavia strikes involve their employees. These can be flight attendants, pilots, engineers, or any other crucial employees. As you’re now aware, you may be eligible for airline strike compensation, if your travel was disrupted. The compensation will then cover the inconvenience you experienced because of the strike.

It is also crucial to understand what “extraordinary circumstances” are. These are events beyond the airline’s control. If a strike is considered one of these circumstances, the airline is not obliged to provide compensation. Importantly, if a staff strike occurs, the airline could have potentially foreseen and handled such incidents, thus these situations are within the airline’s control. That is when flight disruptions are caused by the airline’s own employees, they are not cases of extraordinary circumstances. As a result, passengers are entitled to claim flight compensation.

However, you need to be aware that each incident is individual, meaning that every flight disruption caused by a strike must be carefully analyzed to determine whether the airline will provide compensation.

Transavia Strike Compensation

Before claiming the airline strike compensation, you need to know about the criteria and the amount of compensation you might receive.

Transavia Strike Flight Delay Compensation

The longer a flight is delayed, the more trouble it creates for passengers. When airline workers go on strike, it can disrupt passengers’ plans and make them arrive at their final destination much later than expected. It is crucial to know that if your flight is delayed for more than 3 hours due to a strike, you can claim compensation from the airline for the inconvenience caused.

When considering the potential sum of compensation, passengers should take two critical factors into account: the flight’s distance and the delay length they experience. It is important to understand these factors, as only that is how you can be calm regarding the fair flight delay compensation you are entitled to. In the following, you can see a table with the amounts of compensation you may receive.

Less than 3 hoursBetween 3-4 hoursOver 4 hoursDistance
€0€250€250All flights up to 1500 km
€0€400€400All flights between 1500 km and 3500 km
€0€400€400All intra-EU flights over 3500 km
€0€300€600All non-EU flights over 3500 km

Transavia Strike Flight Cancellation Compensation

Sometimes, it also happens that airline strikes result in flight cancellations. Under EU Regulation 261, you can claim compensation of up to 600 Euros. It’s important to know that the regulation also states that you are entitled to compensation in the case when the airline notified you about the cancellation less than two weeks before your travel.

Nevertheless, there are always some exceptions to the regulations, and here is the case. The airline is entitled to avoid paying compensation if it provides the passenger an alternative flight. This alternative flight must meet the conditions listed below:

Advance NoticeRe-routing Requirements
14 DaysNone
7 – 13 DaysAlternative flight departing no more than 2 hours before and arriving less than 4 hours after the original flight
Less than 7 DaysAlternative flight departing no more than 1 hour before and arriving less than 2 hours after the original flight

Importantly, if you used an alternative flight but your final arrival time at your destination was still delayed, you can claim compensation.

The amount of the compensation is based on the flight distance and the time of delay in arriving at the final destination. Check the table below for more details:

€125€250€250€250€250All flights 1,500 km or less

€300€300€300€600€600Non-internal EU flights over 3,500 km

Which Transavia Flights Are Covered by EU261?

EU261 regulation covers every flight departing from airports in the EU, regardless of the airline, as well as flights arriving in the EU from outside the EU if they are operated by EU airlines. It also applies to flights to and from Norway, Switzerland, and Iceland.

The table below shows which Transavia flights are protected by EU 261/2004:
