Whatever the reason, the impact remains the same for travelers: disrupted itineraries, missed connections, and sometimes, precious moments lost.

Delayed flight: what are you entitled to?

When you’re caught in the web of an airline delay, the feeling of helplessness can be overwhelming. Stuck without being able to act, passengers are forced to wait for the problem to be resolved. However, it is crucial to realize that time spent waiting is not worthless. Indeed, passengers’ rights come into play as soon as the clock shows a certain delay.

For a delay of two hours, you have the right to immediate attention: a snack and a meal are due to you, or even accommodation if departure is postponed until after dark.

When the delay reaches three hours (calculated at the moment when the plane’s wheels finally touch the runway of the arrival airport), the situation changes. Transavia is then required to compensate its passengers for the inconvenience. But be careful, to claim this compensation, a criterion must be met: the delay must not result from a case of force majeure, these major and inevitable unforeseen events which are beyond any control.

Examples: Bad weather, natural disasters, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, storms, epidemics, sudden strikes, airport closures due to computer problem or runway problem, ect.

The amount of compensation fluctuates depending on the length of the journey:

– For short journeys, up to 1500 km, travelers can expect 250 euros.

– For intermediate distances, from 1500 to 3500 km, passengers can expect compensation of 400 euros.

– For journeys exceeding 3,500 km, the compensation available rises to 600 euros.

What if the delay is not attributable to Transavia?

When your flight is delayed, you might think you’re automatically entitled to compensation. However, the reality is often more complex. According to airline regulations, companies are only required to compensate passengers if the delay is due to causes they can control. Scenarios such as extreme weather conditions or an impromptu strike by air traffic controllers are typical examples in which airlines avoid liability. In these cases, compensation is not
guarantee.
