The heat is on... new air passengers rights

Yesterday at the European Parliament the MEPs met with representatives of airlines and air passenger organisations to discuss new proposed rules for air passengers rights as proposed by the European Commission. (101 on air passengers' rights proposal) The Transport Committee's hearing was quite heated, as reported, since views differ drastically as to what air passengers should be entitled to. (Commission proposal needs serious fine-tuning, say MEPs) The Transport Committee will vote on the amended text on 15 November.
