Les frontaliers luxembourgeois ont-ils à apprendre des frontaliers suisses?

Les compagnies/aéroports auront donc plus de flexibilité pour établir des plans de vols/liaisons aux horaires intenables. Les voyageurs peuvent s'attendre à des retards plus fréquents, plus longs et des connexions plus imprévisibles. Bravo aux groupements d'intérêts qui ont réussi à faire passer ça!
Les conditions d’indemnisation des passagers aériens en cas de retard de leur vol devraient devenir plus exigeantes, après un accord trouvé jeudi entre ministres des Transports de l’UE.
