Airline passengers within the EU will continue receiving financial compensation in case of a three-hour delay or a cancelled flight, as EU lawmakers greenlit on Monday a law meant to review passengers’ rights across the bloc.
The vote also sought to end paid cabin luggage, consisting of a free personal item (40×30×15 cm) and a small trolley, with a maximum of 100 cm and 7kg, as European lawmakers voted 34 in favour and zero against on the revision of the EU law to protect passengers’ rights in the European Parliament’s legal affairs committee.
