Flight compensation Tarom:
Chisinau — Bucharest

How to be compensated by Tarom on the Chisinau (KIV) - Bucharest (OTP) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Tarom did not respect its scheduled times for your Chisinau - Bucharest flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 343 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

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

For an Tarom flight from Chisinau to Bucharest, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Chi?in?u International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.

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 Chisinau airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Tarom (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

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 Chi?in?u International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Tarom has no control.

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

The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 250 €, if the delay stretches at Chi?in?u International Airport airport, Tarom is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

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

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Tarom?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Henri Coand? International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

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

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

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

A collective action on the Tarom flight from Chisinau 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 250 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

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