Flight compensation Air Moldova:
Bucharest — Chisinau

Refund and compensation Air Moldova: route Bucharest to Chisinau

Your claim for compensation for the Air Moldova flight from Bucharest to Chisinau deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

By taking off from Henri Coand? International Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 343 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

Did you know? Even if Air Moldova is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Henri Coand? International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Air Moldova Bucharest - Chisinau is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Bucharest and Chisinau entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Bucharest, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Air Moldova to compensate you?

• 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.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Bucharest airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Air Moldova (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Air Moldova compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Bucharest - Chisinau trip is due to an internal strike within Air Moldova, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Henri Coand? International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Air Moldova has no control.

What are your rights at Bucharest airport in case of prolonged wait?

During these long hours of waiting in the Henri Coand? International Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

Your forced stay at Bucharest shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your OTP-KIV trip.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Air Moldova?

It is strongly recommended to keep your Air Moldova boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Henri Coand? International Airport airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Air Moldova on your smartphone.

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

Don't take Air Moldova's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Air Moldova will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
