European Parliament Approves Rules for Children on Flights

Der Spiegel

The European Union changed rules for flights. Passengers can get up to €600 in compensation for delays. The new rules also allow some passengers to sit with their parents for free.

The European Parliament made these changes after more than ten years of discussions. Passengers will still receive compensation if their flight is delayed for three hours or more. The rules now include protections for children and people who are vulnerable. This means they can sit with their parents without paying extra fees. There are still some problems with how much compensation passengers can get.
