About TAROM

TAROM is Romania's state-owned flag carrier. Its base is Henri Coanda International Airport in Bucharest, often referred to by its former name Otopeni, which explains the OTP code. The airline flies domestic routes to Romanian cities such as Cluj-Napoca, Iasi and Timisoara, and international routes to European capitals and to a few cities in the Middle East. TAROM is a SkyTeam member, so its flights can be combined with those of partners such as Air France and KLM. It sells Business and Economy cabins.

Searching for TAROM on IATA.co is done through the booking portal or the flights API, and the fares returned are live. TAROM fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. Payment is deducted from your prepaid balance at the time of booking. Before that step, you can read the fare rules covering baggage, changes and refunds.

TAROM airline codes explained

TAROM uses the two-letter IATA airline code RO and the three-letter ICAO code ROT. The IATA code RO is the one shown on tickets, fare displays and booking screens, while the ICAO code ROT is used in air traffic control and flight planning.

TAROM is a full-service carrier, based in Romania, operating mainly from Bucharest (OTP). It is a member of SkyTeam.

Booking TAROM fares as a travel agent

Travel agents book TAROM fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live RO fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. TAROM results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.

Search TAROM (RO) through the flights API

Developers and agencies can run the same TAROM search from their own site, app or back office through the IATA.co flights API. Filter a search by the carrier code RO and read the fares back as JSON, then book from the same prepaid balance. See the flights API and the API docs for the full reference.
