Summary
The EU just passed a major update to air passenger rights, striking a balance between airline needs and traveler protections. Key rules stay the same — compensation for delays over three hours, with amounts unchanged — but now airlines must clearly explain how to claim it, aiming to boost awareness and payouts. A more aggressive push for pre-filled forms didn’t make the cut, despite support from some lawmakers. After years of negotiation since 2013, this compromise is poised for final parliamentary approval next month. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
