European Passenger Rights Suffer Setback: Expert Warns of Significant Regression Barcelona, Spain – June 6, 2025 – New European Union regulations are causing a significant reduction in air passenger rights, according to aviation law expert Dan Miró. Miró, interviewed by SER Catalunya, highlighted the negative impact on baggage allowances and the increased thresholds for airlines to accept responsibility for flight delays. "The regression of passenger rights in Europe is very significant," Miró stated. He explained that the changes increase the time limits before airlines are liable for compensation for delays, impacting passengers on long flights most significantly. The changes also affect baggage policies. Miró's comments highlight the concern that passengers may experience longer waits and increased inconvenience without adequate compensation.
