"I voted for this text, which once again highlights the numerous problems and risks affecting passengers in all transport modes. In particular, the Commission is urged to improve the transparency of the computerised reservation systems governed by Regulation 1008/2008/EC, which leave consumers open to all types of abuse, such as unfair terms in the overall calculation of ticket prices, with the automatic inclusion of extra unwanted costs. Moreover, we must again urge the Commission to table, at last, a legislative proposal revising the Package Travel Directive 90/314/EEC, which is no longer adapted to the industry and is thus depriving travellers of a legal framework for both standard and exceptional situations. Finally, the current levels of consumer protection in the event of airline bankruptcy or insolvency are insufficient and require a legislative proposal encompassing measures to protect passengers who are stranded in the event of cessation of operations, compulsory airline insurance and the creation of a guarantee fund."@en1
