The New Rules for Denied Boarding, Flight Cancellation or Flight Delay | 261/2004 Consumer Flight Rules | HolidayTravelWatch
The EU Directive 261/2004 is probably the most important set of rights yet created for air passengers. It provides for very clear rules and obligations on the part of airlines and passengers. This article provides basic information in relation to the new denied boarding, flight cancellation, of flight delay Regulations – The New Rules for Denied Boarding, Flight Cancellation or Flight Delay – 20.6.06.pdf
The Volcano Travel Crisis has revealed great stresses upon EU Directive 261/2004, but has demonstrated clearly the benefit to air passengers. We have produced two articles dealing with the 261/2004 rights in this crisis; the first article provides a commentary where you have been ‘trapped’ in resort by ‘no fly’ orders, the second article deals with how to deal with 261/2004 failures when you get home.
