Through this proposal, the Commission set itself the target of establishing, at European Union-level, rights that would protect passengers comparable to those applied to other means of transport, as well ensuring equal conditions of competition between the carriers in the various Member States and between the various means of transport.
Scopul propunerii formulate de Comisie este de a stabili la nivel comunitar drepturi pentru protecţia călătorilor comparabile cu cele valabile în cazul altor moduri de transport şi de a asigura condiţii echitabile de concurenţă între transportatorii din diferite state membre, precum şi între diversele moduri de transport.
