"Inconsistent application of EU passenger rights law, emergence of new trends in services provided and the intermodality affecting some areas of the EU due to local conditions are the three main elements considered by this report, which deserves to be supported. While acknowledging and taking account of different national situations, the need for rationalisation must also be recognised, in order to achieve clear and precise awareness of a minimum and uniform level of EU passenger rights. The report gives due attention to e-commerce; the Italian General Confederation of Enterprises recently underlined that this sector is expanding rapidly, requiring increased regulation of passenger rights, particularly with regard to ticket cancellations, refunds and transparency in pricing. I therefore particularly welcome the comments in paragraphs 41, 48, 49 and 54 regarding an unambiguous definition at EU level of the ‘exceptional circumstances’ under which carriers are not liable to passengers, taking note of the relevant Court of Justice case-law. I also welcome, in addition to the environmental considerations of the report, the proposals for encouraging new ticketing technologies, as well as intermodality and interoperability of networks and carriers, as test areas for best practices having positive economic effects."@en1
