The impact of a strike on your Wizz Air compensation
If your Wizz Air flight from Henri Coand? International Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

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

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Wizz Air?
Getting justice against carrier Wizz Air requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
Don't fill out complex forms on the Wizz Air website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 400 € indemnity.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
Don't be surprised if you don't hear back within fifteen days of your request. The average time observed for a company like Wizz Air to validate a complex file often varies between four and twelve weeks.
The advantage of delegating your claim to a major LegalTech player is that they can speed up this process thanks to automated formal notice systems and the constant threat of legal proceedings.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The first refusal from Wizz Air should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.
For your 400 €, don't compromise with Wizz Air without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Bucharest.
