"On Tuesday, 23 October the European Parliament adopted the report on passenger rights in all transport modes, including, in addition to air and rail transport that is already regulated, waterborne transport and bus/coach transport. This report seeks to coordinate the existing regulations and to establish common guidelines. Mobility is one of the key successes of the single market: facilitating the mobility of European citizens thus meant, of course, that the technical and administrative obstacles to their daily journeys had to be removed. I therefore welcome the fact that the EU is drawing up a set of basic passenger rights comprising rules that take account of their concerns. Among these basic rights, I would draw attention to the right to information that is clear, precise and easy to access from the time of booking and throughout the journey, facilitated by the establishment of information points, but also the right to cancel a journey and receive a full refund of the cost of the ticket, the right to compensation in certain circumstances, the carrier’s liability for luggage, and easy and non-discriminatory access for persons with disabilities or reduced mobility."@en1
