§ 49. Right of recourse: the organiser's claims against others

The right of recourse (regress) rule lets the organiser (arrangør) pursue others after covering a claim from the traveller (reisende). If the organiser pays compensation (erstatning) or a price reduction (prisavslag), or fulfils another obligation under the Act, the organiser takes over the traveller's claim against the party who helped cause the event. The retailer (formidler) has the same right. Under § 37, a retailer must meet the requirements for organisers in chapter 5 and 8 when the organiser is established outside the EEA (EØS). The claim may lapse or be reduced if circumstances on the part of the organiser or the retailer themselves are the cause. This section follows § 48 on booking errors (bestillingsfeil).
