The legal coverage under CE 261/2004 applies by law when Scandinavian Airlines System breaches its duties on the 1 552 km route from Bucharest to Copenhagen.

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.

This key legislation of European aviation rights covers nearly a billion passengers every year. Yet, over 85% don't bother because they don't know their rights.

How to know if the flight Scandinavian Airlines System Bucharest - Copenhagen is eligible?

To check if your flight between Bucharest and Copenhagen is eligible for a payout, the main criterion is the arrival delay ({not the departure delay|measured at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport}). It must be greater than 3 hours.

Be cautious: Scandinavian Airlines System may attempt to have you sign a waiver. Don't sign anything without consulting an expert.

What are the conditions for Scandinavian Airlines System to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Scandinavian Airlines System compensation

The question of strikes is a common friction point in claims. It is essential to differentiate between a strike by Scandinavian Airlines System's employees (flight crew) and an external strike.

The distinction is subtle but essential. By consulting aviation experts, they will verify in official records the actual cause of the delay recorded on the day of your Bucharest - Copenhagen flight.

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

The right to care is a crucial provision of the EU text. Regardless of the 400€ question, if the delay drags on at Henri Coand? International Airport, Scandinavian Airlines System is obliged to provide coupons for food and drink.

The regulation is very clear: assistance is not an optional courtesy from Scandinavian Airlines System. It is a legal obligation that can be sanctioned.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Scandinavian Airlines System?

Airlines like Scandinavian Airlines System have whole departments specialised in deterring unassisted passengers. Against this imbalance, having an expert makes all the difference.

The main benefit: they take on all the complexity and only collect fees if the 400€ are successfully recovered.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

The reality is stark: on average, a passenger acting alone takes 4 to 8 months to obtain their 400€ from Scandinavian Airlines System. Via a specialist, the time falls to 1 to 2 months.

Recovering 400€ has never been faster thanks to the technology between defence platforms and Scandinavian Airlines System's systems.

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

The template response from Scandinavian Airlines System citing "extraordinary circumstances" for your Bucharest-Copenhagen flight is a well-known tactic. Traffic data are accessible and can confirm or refute every claim.

The national CAA or its EU equivalents can be slow. A private legal action against Scandinavian Airlines System is often more impactful. Medium-haul cases typically fall under the main civil court.
