| Abstract | Since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, package travel contracts have been cancelled throughout the world, both before and after departure of individual consumers. In this paper the author discusses whether and to what extent courts and recognised ADR entities may rely on national contract law rules on unforeseen circumstances in other to tackle the consequences of the pandemic for package travel contracts or whether the 2015 Package Travel Directive does not allow for the application of such rules. |
