The impact of a strike on your Tarom compensation
Don't be misled by Tarom's vague terms: a "spontaneous" or declared strike is the operational burden of the airline. On this short-haul, the internal/external strike distinction is the same.
Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to air traffic control, Tarom is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Vienna airport in case of prolonged wait?
Care is due after 2h of delay for this route. Tarom must guarantee the wellbeing of passengers stranded at Vienna. This 2-hour threshold applies to flights ≤1500 km.

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