<abstract displayLabel="Summary">This study on safety and liability issues relating to package travel, package holidays and package tours seeks to highlight some of the gaps in the EU package travel law by answering a number of specific questions related to statistical evidence, Community legislation, and US legislation. It also suggests possible solutions to fill these gaps. The study was prepared by Civic Consulting and is based on a legal analysis, a literature review, an evaluation of statistical data, and on interviews with European and national travel and tour operator associations, individual tour operators, European and national associations of insurers, individual insurance companies, and European and national consumer organisations. All research was conducted between November and mid-December 2007. Annex I: Package Travel Directive -- Annex II: Code of Federal Regulations-public charters -- Annex III: Methodology of analysis of statistics</abstract>
