What is the EU Package Travel Directive?
The latest version of the EU Package Travel Directive, which brings it up-to-date with developments in the travel market, has applied since 1 July 2018.
It extends the 1990 EU Package Travel Directive beyond traditional package holidays to protect consumers who book other forms of combined travel, such as a flight plus a hotel purchased together online. Under the new directive, such combinations are regarded and protected as a package for insurance purposes.
