How to be compensated by Tarom on the Bucharest (OTP) - Brussels (BRU) line
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Bucharest and Brussels with Tarom? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 754 km of flight, the company Tarom is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Henri Coand? International Airport (OTP)
- Arrival airport: Brussels Airport (BRU)
- Flight distance: 1 754 km (~2h12)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Tarom Bucharest - Brussels is eligible?
For an Tarom flight from Bucharest to Brussels, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Henri Coand? International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.
What are the conditions for Tarom to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Brussels.
-
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 Tarom (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Bucharest, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Tarom compensation
Don't be fooled by Tarom's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
A strike by weather services at Henri Coand? International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Tarom has no control.
What are your rights at Bucharest 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 Henri Coand? 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 Henri Coand? 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?
Getting justice against carrier Tarom requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Tarom.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Tarom. An expert can reduce this time by half.
A collective action on the Tarom flight from Bucharest can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
It is not uncommon for a claim for 400 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.
Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Tarom convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
