Package travel and linked travel arrangements (A8-0297/2015 - Birgit Collin-Langen)

  Afzal Khan (S&D), in writing. ‒ I stood behind the Travel Package because it seeks to protect consumers as well as businesses by improving pre-contractual information requirements and termination rights, increasing the effectiveness of insolvency protection for travellers in the case of trader’s insolvency. Trader liability will be reinforced in the case of underperformance of the package and consumers will be better protected in the case of impossible return due to unavoidable and extraordinary circumstances.
