Travel App as ideal travel compagnion

Just in time for the summer the European Consumer Centres Network (ECC-Net) launches a brand new version of its unique and free mobile application: the ECC-Net: Travel app.

Developed as an ideal travel companion inside the European Union as well as in Iceland and Norway, it helps the European consumers to know and express their consumer rights in 25 European languages. For each type of situation, the app not only informs you whether you are entitled to claim your rights but also how to express them.

The application works offline to avoid roaming fees.

More information about the app: Travel App 2.0

Will air passenger rights change soon?

A new attempt for revised passenger rights in air travel is here. The initiative could lead to the replacement of the old Air Passenger Rights Regulation, especially in the area of delays and flight cancellations. This means that air travellers in the EU will get more rights in the future - but also fewer in certain cases.
