Free cabin luggage and delay compensation approved by EU Parliament.

European lawmakers gave the final green light to the revised regulation after a decade of talks with EU countries.

Airlines argue the new rules will inevitably lead to higher ticket prices. Passenger associations say rights have been upheld.

The European Parliament celebrates an air passenger rights win.

The Parliament has had the last word on the hard-fought EU air passenger rights reform deal.

The vote concludes 13 years of negotiations, and a successful parliamentary campaign to retain statutory compensation in the event of cancellation or delay exceeding 3 hours.

European capitals had sided with airlines in a bid to extend the delay thresholds and reduce some entitlements.

Why I hope the @erpu succeeds: we don't need "any train travel" between #european regions.

We need is mostly reliable, easy to book, long distance train travel a single parent *dares* to take with a toddler.

The type of travel where a train company is liable of truly, and actively, help you out during calamities. Taking in account your circumstances. And them cancelling trains.. is a calamity.

If that is secured everyone else will be fine as well.

hey fedi interrail users,

i haven't had this happen yet, but I want to have a plan for when this inevitably happens instead of panicking, so imagine

• you use a mobile pass
• you travel on a multi-train connection
• the next train on your connection is cancelled or delayed severely, so you'd have to some different train than some that is currently on your pass

how do you ensure that compensation that you might be entitled to due to delay in arriving at your destination is not "lost"?
do i have to change the train that is on my pass? if i do, how do I keep the information around for compensation requests?

India’s aviation regulator, the Directorate General of Civil Aviation, has mandated airlines to offer at least 60% seats free of charge from April 20 to improve passenger rights. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/dgca-mandates-60-percent-free-airline-seats-p1ysh5do?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #DGCA #AviationNews #IndiaFlights #PassengerRights #AirlinesIndia

DGCA aims to simplify airline regulations while protecting passenger rights as rising fuel costs, airspace restrictions and West Asia tensions impact India’s aviation sector. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/india/dgca-aviation-regulations-india-reforms-updates-my6dj90h?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #DGCA #AviationIndia #AirlineIndustry #FlightCosts #PassengerRights

How many times do these situations have to happen before government stops hanging out at the the lobbyist's cocktail party and actually does its job regulating companies and protecting citizens?

“If the airline is unable to re-book a passenger on its own or partner airlines departing within 48 hours of the original departure time, they have to buy the passenger’s seat ticket on the next available flight of any carrier. And that means including competitors. That’s what the law says, that’s what WestJet has to do. The problem is that WestJet is flouting the law. WestJet treats the law as if it was just friendly recommendations.”

Uber Reinstates Drivers Amid Concerns Over Passenger Evidence

Uber is letting banned drivers return to the road. Reports say passenger complaints are not fully checked first. This raises safety worries.

I'm having issues with a passenger rights case :

I had delay during a trip on December 31st so that I missed the last train from Germany to Alsace that day. I paid EUR 70 for a taxi ride.

Eurail claims they don't need to reimburse this even though they agree it was the last connection of the day. After clarifying we agree on that, they claim taxis are not reimbursed in such a case pointing to https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A32021R0782 - Article 18.

They say :

---

In this section, you will find information about how, if a suitable alternative cannot be provided within 100 minutes, the traveller (sic.) can use comprable (sic.) method to reach their destination. These methods are indicated to be bus, rail and coach. Taxis and flights are specifically excluded.

I am not aware of anywhere in our official policy, or within the Passenger Rights Regulation, where it is indicated that taxis are a valid form of alternative travel if the missed connection is the last one of the day.

---

From my understanding from past experiences I'm entitled to use a taxi if there is no train, no bus, nothing else getting me to my destination at the same day.

Am I wrong or is Eurail wrong ?

#DuckDuckFedi #BahnBubble #PassengerRights

All this talk of connection times at @jon's feed has reminded me of a bullshit thing in #PKPIC's domestic conditions of carriage. Namely, they contain a blanket provision stripping you of passenger rights across any connection shorter than 10 mins scheduled. Which would be less crazy if not for the fact that PKP PLK considers a connection requested by a carrier (you can see those when browsing Portal Pasażera, the "receiving" train will have a clickable S in a square by the station in question) satisfied at a minimum of 5 minutes. So after any timetable change (and remember, 5 of those a year here) you may suddenly find yourself unable to buy a through ticket for a particular set of trains for no apparent reason.

Yes, this is the sort of bullshit that makes people here rather less receptive to arguments that maximizing one-seat rides is not a good thing

Thanks to the EU overlords, citizens wanting to travel by plane without cabin luggage will pay just as much as those that travel with cabin luggage. EU overlords say that cabin luggage should be taken aboard without extra charge. In reality, those traveling without cabin luggage will pay extra.
