The European Commission launches campaign to inform passengers about their rights
May 29, 2010
Youth society for peace and development of the Balkans is a coordinator for the Campaign "Your Passenger Rights At Hand" launched earlier today (June 29, 2010) by Vice-President Siim Kallas. Passengers in Bulgaria, as well as in the whole EU will enjoy easier access to information about their rights when travelling by rail or air. Although the Commission has in recent years introduced legislation to ensure air and rail passengers benefit from the same standards of treatment throughout the European Union, not all passengers are yet aware of what they are entitled to. To remedy this, posters reminding people of their rights will be displayed in airports and train stations in all Member States starting today in time for the beginning of the holiday season. Travellers will also be able to consult free leaflets and a specially designed website in all of the European Union's official languages, including Bulgarian.
The attached documents will provide you with more information.
