TRIP REPORT | ATR into the Storm! ツ | Tarom ATR 72-600 | Vienna to Bucharest

TAROM Trip Report flying from Vienna to Bucharest onboard one of the new TAROM ATR 72-600 on a cloudy spring morning.
My first time flying with TAROM, in this case flying from Vienna to Bucharest onboard one of the new ATR 72-600 that TAROM has acquired in the last years. To be honest, I was quite disappointed with this airline. I don't know why, but I was expecting something else, something unique, something that makes you feel ok when paying a 100+ €uro ticket for an 800km flight.
I didn't see anything special on it. Even more, I've seen a rusty airline, far from being modern in terms of service onboard and customer care. The 2 flight attendants disappeared as soon as we took off and we didn't know from them until we were already descending. The onboard service was a little bottle of water. Here we have another legacy airline using the pandemic as an excuse to cut costs and customer service.
The flight itself was quite nice. For the first time we departed from the non-Schengen part of Vienna airport, so we could do some planespotting from the top floor, that offers a lot better views of all the planes. After a turbulent takeoff and a very cloudy cruise stage, we landed in Bucharest in the middle of a rain pour. The disembark, of course, was by walking through that rain.
Have you flown already with TAROM? Which route? Have you ever flown to Romania? How was the experience? Read you in the comments!

If people are sending you their videos, I am taking the plane in about 3 weeks and I could probably send you all the clips so that you have another trip report to post on KZread !

    The ATR72-600 is a perfect sized aircraft to operate at present on some of these longer routes with lower passenger loads. 2 Hours is fairly long sector for them, but if needed the could operate the further. Israir Airlines were using their ATR72-500 on a daily KIEV to Tel Aviv flight last Summer with a flight time of over 4 hours. ✈️

    The Aegean A321 was not grounded there. It operated flights for its sister airline, Romanian airline Animawings (75% owned by a Romanian Tour-operator, 25% by Aegean). The last Airbus A320 seen while taxiing parallel to runway 8R, that red one does also operate for Animawings as YR-AGA and is the ex SX-DGI. At this moment, two other Aegean A320s operate flights along with YR-AGA for Animawings (SX-DVT & SX-DVY). How did you find Romania? Did you enjoy it?

    Now for that Aegean A320: That plane was not actually grounded, it was just waiting for a new flight. That alongside with another Aegean A320 and A321 is operated by Animawings, a new Romanian leisure airline. You may have seen that A320 in their colours while taxiing to the gate. Animawings is expanding rapidly at the moment and in order to keep up with the demand, the airline operates aircraft from its parent company, Aegean Airlines (that owns a 25% stake in Animawings)

    Really interesting video as always, I would say in English when you enter the clouds from below you are entering the cloud base, the cloud ceiling is the top of the clouds. I think the reduced service is to save costs, if it were about preventing covid spreading why have any service at all, but you can't blame the airlines they are all losing money at the moment. I flew on a atr 72 to isle of man once in winter with aer arann and the de-icing was working overtime with chunks of ice falling off the leading edge. Indeed the engine power was noticibly higer and we even decended below the clouds early to get out of it. I think the Atr doesnt have an APU but it has a prop brake and so the engine can run without the prop spinning, this is only on one engine, but means the plane can operate without ground power.

    Let me give you the definition os "cloud ceiling" in aviation: ceiling is a measurement of the height of the base of the lowest clouds (not to be confused with cloud base which has a specific definition) that cover more than half of the sky (more than 4 oktas) relative to the ground. About the "APU" of the ATR. Yeah, you are 100% correct :)

    Covid hit the airlines hard, so I think, that they have to cut on service. Besides, some governments support airlines, during Covid, but others don't. I flew from Vienna to Bucharest, in 1983. At that time, Tarom was using British-made BAC-111 jets. They looked like a DC-9, with 5 seats across. In 1980-ties, I also flew Austrian Airlines, a few times. They were using DC-9s.

    I do miss the AUA Dashes from the planespotter point of view. You asked about the in flight service downgrade. In my opinion I got used to we live in different era and that era started more time ago than just when the pandemic started. Airlines started reducing their inflight service like five or six years ago. I really miss hot meals included in the ticket price as it was something I used to get when I was flying as a kid. Unfortunately it's gone and I live with it it won't be back anymore. We have to pay for everything onboard. On the other side the airline tickets are much cheaper than anytime before. So when you pay 5EUR for ticket from Greece to Austrian you can't expect you get some hot meal etc. And in case the airline asks much money and doesn't give you inflight service according to the flight ticket price - just don't fly with them as they are propably overpriced and not worth for money. That's my opinion

    They've been retired 2 weeks ago or so, so I didn't have time to miss them, but for sure I will. Luckily I flew several times on the Austrian Dash8 :) The point is that the "legacy airlines" didn't reduce the ticket prices (even more, sometimes they rose them) and they cut all services onboard. Then some people wonder why low-cost airlines are the biggest in Europe... For sure I wouldn't be flying with many airlines if I woudn't have this channel. 80% of airlines in Europe are not worth the money they charge :)

    ok so to give you some context: TAROM is allegedly the flag carrier of Romania, even though the past years have been tough. TAROM is very unprofitable at the moment and has been since 2006 when Romania experienced the low cost 'invasion', and TAROM couldn't keep up with the low fares these airlines were offering, unsurprisingly falling behind and losing a lot of marketshare. COVID was actually a life saver for them because the airline was forced to adopt a restructuring plan consisting of cutting off unneeded staff, planes and more. The carrier is expected to become profitable by 2025, which i believe is true seeing that TAROM is following the plan closely. TAROM offered free hot meals on all its flights before COVID, and maybe this is a strategy to cut on costs.

    But Tarom is not a LCC..It's a legacy airline..And the space/pitch story on low cost is debatable..Ryanair has a very decent seat-pitch and so does Easyjet..British Airways economy class A319s and A320s can be very tight after the first few rows..And recently Star Alliance carriers LH/OS/LX adopted the BOB model like LCCs..So it's not as cut-and-dry as people think, since nowadays the line between LCCs and Legacies is so blurred unless you are flying business class
