Key messages on the Package Travel Directive (PTD). — Brussels : Insurance Europe, 2025

4 p.

Sumario: European insurers fully support the EU's objectives of making the protection of travellers more effective and to simplify and clarify certain aspects of the original Directive. This is especially relevant in the wake of the numerous challenges facing the travel industry after the bankruptcy of the travel group Thomas Cook, and during the COVID-19 pandemic. These events illustrated that it is important to ensure that the rules regarding insolvency protection are clear, unambiguous, and allow flexibility for national specificities. However, it is crucial that the final revision strikes the right balance between the reinforcement of passenger rights and the protection of travel organisers from bankruptcy
