What is TAROM cancelled flight compensation?

If you have been affected by a TAROM flight cancellation, you may be entitled to compensation of up to €600 under Regulation (EC) 261/2004. This European legal framework provides protection to passengers traveling from or to the EU and clearly regulates the situations in which you can claim compensation. Find out below what TAROM compensation – canceled flight entails and how you can claim it.

Important to know

The compensation amount is fixed and doesn't depend on your ticket price. A €50 budget airline ticket can result in the same compensation as a €500 ticket if the flight qualifies.

In what situations can you claim compensation for a canceled TAROM flight?

To be entitled to TAROM compensation – canceled flight, the following conditions must apply:

You CAN claim if:

The flight was canceled less than 14 days before departure
TAROM is responsible for the cancellation (e.g., malfunctions, lack of crew, etc.)
The plane was taking off from an airport located in the European Union
Or it was arriving at an airport in the EU and was operated by TAROM

You CANNOT claim if:

The cancellation was caused by exceptional factors (storm, external strike)

If the cancellation occurred at the last minute and the airline could not justify the event through exceptional circumstances, you can request financial compensation. It is important to keep all travel documents and request official confirmation of the cancellation.
