The
European Commission released a report on the application and enforcement of the
EU Regulations on the rights of air passengers, i.e. Regulation 261/2004, which lays down passenger rights in case of
long delay, flight cancellation and denied boarding, and Regulation 1107/2006, which provides for the rights of persons
with reduced mobility. The report contains statistics for the period 2010-2012,
based on data reported by the National Enforcement Bodies (NEBs) and
Eurocontrol. The statistics provide very interesting information.
