Cancellazione del volo e sistemazione in hotel: il vettore aereo non risponde dei danni al passeggero per negligenze del personale alberghiero

With the ruling in question, the EU Court of Justice intervenes on the interpretation of the provisions of art. 9 of (EC) Reg. no. 261/2004, specifying the content of the “right to care”. In particular, with reference to the obligation to offer hotel accommodation, the Court states that the air carrier is not liable for the performance of the services rendered by the hotelier and / or his employees.
