The text of the law (unofficial translation)
§ 39. Information requirements
- the traveller is not protected by the rights that apply exclusively to package holidays (pakkereiser)
- each service provider (tjenesteyter) is only responsible for the correct performance of its own travel service (reisetjeneste)
- the traveller is covered by the travel guarantee (reisegarantien) under § 42 first paragraph, second sentence.
What does this mean?
The section applies to whoever facilitates a linked travel arrangement. Before the agreement is entered into, the facilitator must give clear and prominent notice of three matters. Travellers do not have the rights that apply only to package holidays. Responsibility is divided, so that each service provider is answerable for its own service. And the travel guarantee under § 42 covers travellers. The notice must be given in a standard information form if a suitable one exists, otherwise in another way. The Ministry may issue further rules on the forms in regulations. The consequences of a breach are set out in § 40.
