Then Transeric Tur paid an Air Moldova charter flight from Paris without having permission from the Moldovan authorities. As a result, more than 200 Moldovan citizens remained trapped at Charles de Gaulle Airport.

For this, the National Motor Transportation Agency filed a probe in May 2020.

According to official statistical data, in 2017 Transeric Tur reported a net profit of almost 3.9 million lei, and for 2016 and 2018 it reported a total loss of some 5.9 million lei.

Transeric Tur was founded by Eduard Begu and Irina Svetenco-Podrea; the latter also acts as the administrator of this firm. Eduard Begu and the husband of his business partner, Laurentiu Podrea, are suspected of setting on fire many vehicles owned by their competitors. The case reached a court in July 2020.
