Travel Service passengers Bucharest-Prague: your guide to get compensated

You travelled with Travel Service from Bucharest to Prague and the flight was disrupted? EU law mandates compensation when the airline is at fault.

Given the route between Bucharest and Prague (1 081 km), the EU scale provides for automatic protection in case of a breach by Travel Service. Short-haul routes are covered from the first tier.

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 is by no means a commercial courtesy from Travel Service, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Travel Service Bucharest - Prague is eligible?

Distinguish between fare reimbursement and statutory indemnity! Even if Travel Service proposes a voucher for your Bucharest - Prague flight, you can still claim the cash sum of 250€ guaranteed by the regulation.

What many don't know: you have several years to submit your request against Travel Service for the Bucharest-Prague flight. Don't think it's too late even after several months.

What are the conditions for Travel Service to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Prague.
• 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 Travel Service (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Travel Service compensation

A work stoppage by Travel Service's crews is considered inherent to the ordinary activity of the carrier and is no longer a valid justification to refuse the 250€.

Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to airport staff, Travel Service is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.
