Air Moldova passengers Bucharest-Chisinau: what to do to file a claim
You were due to travel with Air Moldova from Bucharest to Chisinau and things went wrong? Regulation CE 261/2004 guarantees a payout in most cases.
Seize this entitlement: the Air Moldova flight Bucharest → Chisinau (343 km) entitles you to 250€ compensation under EU regulation.
Why are you entitled to 250 €?
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.
Details of your right to compensation

- Arrival airport: Chi?in?u International Airport (KIV)
- Flight distance: 343 km (~0h26)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Good to know? Even if Air Moldova is a airline based outside the EU, if the flight takes off from Henri Coand? International Airport, CE 261 applies in full.
How to know if the flight Air Moldova Bucharest - Chisinau is eligible?
Three criteria are required to establish your right to 250€: {delay exceeds 3h at Chisinau|flight cancelled less than 14 days before|boarding denied} — and {the cause is attributable to|Air Moldova is responsible for|the fault lies with} Air Moldova.
In the case of a flight suppression, if you were informed fewer than two weeks before your departure from Bucharest, the CE 261 applies equally.

Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Chisinau.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
