Flight compensation Tarom:
Amman — Bucharest

How to be compensated by Tarom on the Amman (AMM) - Bucharest (OTP) line

From Queen Alia International Airport airport, your departure with Tarom to Bucharest didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 668 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Tarom to pay you financial compensation.

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Tarom Amman - Bucharest is eligible?

For an Tarom flight from Amman to Bucharest, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Tarom sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Queen Alia International Airport, the 400 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Tarom to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bucharest.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Amman airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Tarom (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Tarom compensation

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

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Tarom is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 400 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Queen Alia International Airport, Tarom must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Queen Alia International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Tarom?

The amicable route with Tarom to recover 400 € often fails without a technical and legal file.

Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Tarom flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.

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

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Amman to Henri Coand? International Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

By entrusting the recovery of your 400 € to a trusted third party, you save yourself months of waiting and the anxiety of seeing your case closed without follow-up, as reminders are managed by aviation law professionals.

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

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

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
