#EUPassengerRights are world-renowned and we want to improve them.
Our proposed Mobility Package aims to:
→ ensure equal protection for bookings through intermediaries
→ extend protections for multi-mode journeys
→ step up special assistance for passengers with disabilities

"In addition, where they bought the multimodal journey under one transport contract, they will be entitled to assistance by the carrier"
Unfortunately there's no serious push from the European commission or any international regulatory body to force providers to sell more trips (specifically train & bus) as "one transport contract". So the situation for many travelers will stay the same*
*not taking the last train, going for very large transfer times, opting for car/plane etc.
@EU_Commission you should check this to see how it can be improved – https://jonworth.eu/railpassengerrights/
@EU_Commission Will sharing data in a unified and open format become mandatory in any way? My local bus provider only offers its own search, which cannot find routes with stopovers, and they even ignore requests to make the location of the bus stops publicly available. Their service is hardly usable for first-timers, and cannot be combined with other means of transportation for the very same reason, but they are the only player on the market, so they can afford that.
@EU_Commission the proposal sounds good, but the best thing is that picture. That station really is lovely, possibly the most beautiful one I have ever seen!
