Al Israel Airlines Ltd. (Level:delicious) Assizing a declaration of ministerial and legal revisions so as not to pay payment in terms of accommodation and transportation for Israeli passengers left overseas.
This morning there was a discussion with the Economics Economics committee about the operation to return Israel overseas since the start of Iran this month. From the introductory motives by El Al ahead of discussions, wanting the plane wants to be a change in aviation duties in emergency conditions, such as today’s war. El al describes a difficult economic condition made by rescue breaches during the war, and demands official recognition of activity as a “special condition” allowing for realfers for the realfers for the realfers for airlines.
The law of aviation services, insured in 2012, ensure basic rights for passengers on trips and from Israel, if there is a delay in cancellation of a passenger. The law requires airlines to provide assistance and financial fees, depending on circumstances.
Often, if a flight is canceled or significantly delayed, passengers have the right to help and pay the law. The help includes hotel accommodation, transportation between airport and hotel, food, and rest. In addition to statutory fees can be from hundreds to thousands of cycles, as well as a flight ticket refund or the provision of an alternative ticket.
The calming for statutory disruption to the destruction caused by airline control conditions, such as an error scheduling. On the other hand, if special circumstances are involved more than the airline controls, such as war, weather, the plane is not obligated to give charge to the law.
For several months, the Economics Economics Committee discusses a revision of the law, to make it appropriate for the period of war, and it is finally passed as a temporary step. Previously, the law requires aircraft to pay passengers’ financial fees for flight cancellations, provide accommodation without time limit, and offer an alternative flight to the original destination.
Today, the Minister of Transport Miri Regev, who agree to the economic committee, allowed to express a “special condition”, thus temporarily suspending some consumer rights during the emergency period. Accommodation can be limited to two nights, advance of the cancellation notice can be shortened from 14 to 3 days, and an alternate flight offer is allowed in Israel but only in a nearby destination. Concessions will be given for a period of up to 60 days at an hour, with all valid only when reward declared a “special situation”. In practice, he has never done so.
