Get your Tarom flight compensation for the route Larnaca - Bucharest

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

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 255 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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Larnaca International Airport (LCA)
  • Arrival airport: Henri Coand? International Airport (OTP)
  • Flight distance: 1 255 km (~1h34)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

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 Larnaca - Bucharest is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Henri Coand? International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Tarom owes you 250 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Tarom sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Larnaca International Airport, the 250 € 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 Larnaca airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Tarom (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Larnaca, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Tarom compensation

A work stoppage of Tarom crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 250 €.

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 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Tarom must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Larnaca.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Larnaca International Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Tarom.

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.

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 250 € compensation?

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

A collective action on the Tarom flight from Larnaca can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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

Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Larnaca - Bucharest line.

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.
