BackThe BAK provides an initial assessment on the planned Revision of EU Regulation 261/2004 on establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights and of EU Regulation 2027/97 on air carrier liability in respect of the carriage of passengers and their baggage by air.
The BAK welcomes above all the Revision of the Passenger Rights Regulation. It is urgently required in particular in view of the partly systematic refusal of a number of airlines to provide justified claims of support, care and compensation. In addition, significant problems with regard to interpretation and application have been revealed, which result in great legal uncertainty among air passengers and airlines.
