Journal Title: Folia Turistica - Year 2018, Vol 49, Issue

Abstract

Purpose. The purpose of this article is to verify, to a certain extent, the thesis on greater protection of the traveller after the entry into force of the Act on Package Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements, in relation to the hitherto binding provisions of the Act on Tourist Services represented e.g. in literature and the media.<br/><br/>Method. The paper uses the dogmatic-legal method - analysis of problems presented on the basis of legal regulations and literature on the subject.<br/><br/>Findings. The author points out, on selected examples, that with regard to many problems, which are important from a practical point of view, this protection has actually worsened the situation, the traveller is less protected than under the Act on Tourist Services. In fact, the new provisions lead to partial worsening of the legal situation of the traveller.<br/><br/>Research and conclusions limitations. Due to the timing of the adoption of Directive 2015/2302 and the Act on Packages Travel and Linked Travel Arrangements, the presented issues are new, with relatively little literature to date.<br/><br/>Practical implications. Conclusions resulting from the article may be used to assess the importance of the implementation regarding the provisions of Directive 2015/2302 in Polish law, including possible legislative interference.<br/><br/>Originality. The problem has not been presented so far.<br/><br/>Type of work. Problem article.<br/><br/>
