"I voted in favour of this report because it is important that high standards of consumer protection are also ensured in the area of air transport. Transport by air raises several matters of concern from the perspective of consumer protection. One example is the unfair contract terms generally in use and relating to the transferability and cancellation of tickets. I welcome the call for measures that would make it possible to correct minor booking errors free of charge and without having to engage in laborious procedures. In the matter of air travellers’ rights, the main focus needs to be on the importance of informing passengers of their rights and on simplifying processes. Many travellers do not exercise their rights, either because they do not know of their existence in general, or because they worry about the awkward complaints procedures involved. For this reason, the information given must be timely and comprehensive. The importance of announcements is all the greater when services are disrupted, as they were in the flight chaos caused by the ash cloud."@en1
