Taking account of the steady growth of this transport sector, the aim of this proposal is to establish EU-wide rights for the protection of passengers comparable to those in other modes of transport and to secure a level playing field between carriers from different Member States as well as the various modes of transport.
Ţinând seama de creşterea constantă din acest sector de transport, scopul acestei propuneri este de a stabili la nivel comunitar drepturi de protejare a pasagerilor similare celor din alte moduri de transport şi de a asigura condiţii echitabile de concurenţă între transportatorii din diferite state membre, precum şi între diferitele mijloace de transport.
