Flight compensation Wizz Air:
Bucharest — Bologna

Claim and compensation for flight Wizz Air Bucharest - Bologna

Your claim for compensation for the Wizz Air flight from Bucharest to Bologna deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 171 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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.

Did you know? Even if Wizz Air is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Henri Coand? International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Wizz Air Bucharest - Bologna is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Bucharest and Bologna entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Wizz Air to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bologna.
• 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 Wizz Air (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Wizz Air compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

If Henri Coand? International Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Wizz Air, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Henri Coand? International Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Bucharest - Bologna section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!

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

The use of complex legal jargon by Wizz Air is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 250 €.
