The impact of a strike on your Wizz Air compensation
Don't be misled by Wizz Air's vague terms: a unannounced or declared strike is the operational burden of the airline. On this short-haul, the internal/external strike distinction is the same.
Even if the 250€ are not payable due to an external strike at Bucharest, assistance (meals/hotel) stays mandatory Wizz Air. Never forget this.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Wizz Air?
Initiating a procedure with Wizz Air for a flight from Bucharest to Bergamo can be complex if you go it alone. Customer service often tends to cite the weather to refuse your claim.
The main benefit: they take on all the complexity and only collect fees if the 250€ are successfully recovered.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Don't give up faced with Wizz Air's silence. It's a deliberate tactic to discourage claimants. Data confirms that over 80% of passengers give up along the way.
By choosing a "No Win, No Fee" service, you take no risk. If the 250€ aren't recovered, you owe nothing. As transparent as that.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Know that Wizz Air doesn't need to justify its refusal immediately. But when you respond with documentation, the obligation to prove shifts {to the airline|onto Wizz Air}.
As a last resort, it is court action that often unlocks payment. Wizz Air will almost always choose to pay the 250€ rather than face lawyer fees for a case doomed to fail in court.
