Tourism 2021:new measures for canceling or getting a refund for your trip

To make people want to travel safely, tourism professionals try to have a key argument:flexibility . Being able to be reimbursed or canceled free of charge is now essential for around 46% of travelers, according to a study by Booking.com carried out in 2020. For this, new reimbursement rules have been set up:

• If you or your travel agent cancels your getaway , "customers have the right to refuse a credit and to demand a refund of the sums paid within 14 days" according to the expert site Dossier Familial.
• If you cancel your means of transport (plane, train, coach boat) , refund is not guaranteed. Some professionals in the sector decide whether or not to offer a deferral, a credit note or, like the SNCF, a full refund.

In case of disputes , you can contact the Tourism and Travel Mediator (MTV) by post or via this online form, or the General Directorate of Civil Aviation (DGAC) via this form.
