    Ministry of Justice stops insolvency protection report:\u00a0<\/strong>The research project on customer money protection has been cancelled. The Ministry of Justice wants to find faster ways to reform insolvency protection. The authority is taking a stand on points of contention with FVW. The Federal Government wanted to find out as soon as possible whether the German insolvency insurance system for package tours is efficient enough to guarantee the full protection required by the EU This after the implementation of the new travel law in mid-2018. At the end of 2018, a corresponding research project was put out to tender but never has been awarded. At the request of the fvw editorial staff, the Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection (BMJV), which is responsible for this matter, declared: \u00abThe expert opinion has been stopped. The reason: After the bankruptcy of the organizer Thomas Cook, the authority no longer wants to rely on a \u00abtime-intensive\u00bb research project, but to work out \u00abtimely\u00bb options for action. The duration of the expert opinion was set at two and a half years in the invitation to tender. The BMJV cannot yet say exactly how the decision-making process will now proceed.

      Thomas Cook insolvency – Tour operators face higher insurance costs:\u00a0<\/strong>According to FVW, tour operators in Germany may have to pay out much more for insolvency insurance in future after the Thomas Cook collapse left customers reportedly facing up to \u20ac400 million worth of losses. The collapse of the country’s second-largest tour operator has shown that even one of the market leaders is not \u00abtoo big to fail\u00bb and can seriously damage the entire system, according to experts. This is because, in contrast to other EU countries, Germany has a low level of insolvency insurance for tour operators with a moderate maximum liability level. An insurance company only has to cover potential total losses of \u20ac110 million from all the tour operators that it insures. But the total losses for customers caused by Thomas Cook’s insolvency could reach \u20ac400 million, according to the newspaper BILD. It calculated the total value of the 660,000 future holidays booked through Cook at the time of its insolvency at the end of September as \u20ac500 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        EU Parliament demands bankruptcy protection for airlines:\u00a0<\/strong>In view of 32 airline bankruptcies in the EU since 2017, the European Parliament calls for airlines to be covered against insolvency similar to tour operators, reports REISEVOR9. Package travelers should also be better protected according to the resolution passed by MEPs last week. In its resolution of 24 October, the European Parliament stressed that \u00abpassengers who have booked an independent service such as an individual flight should enjoy the same protection as passengers who have booked a package holiday\u00bb. This also includes the protection of passengers in the event of the insolvency or bankruptcy of an airline. For example, \u00abby airlines setting up guarantee funds or concluding insurance contracts to provide assistance, reimbursement, compensation and rebooking\u00bb. In addition, the EU Parliament stresses the need for better supervision of the financial situation of airlines by national supervisory authorities. In future, this should prevent \u00abEuropean passengers from becoming victims of such defaults, as 32 airlines have gone bankrupt since the beginning of 2017\u00bb, according reisevor9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
