Vad utgör resebyråns rättsliga ställning i förhållande till flygbolaget och resenären?

Sammanfattning: Normally when purchasing a trip, an airline, a travel agency and a traveler is included in the purchasing process. Mostly a travel agency acts as an intermediary between the airline and the traveler. The travel agency is not considered to have any major part to the contractual relationship, usually the purchase agreement is considered to be covered by the airline and the traveler as the main parties. This is essentially the view shown from a legal perspective on the specific area. The application of legal provisions on the travel agency’s legal status may nevertheless bring a certain amount of ambiguity in the interpretation. The legal area is rather unclear in its structure and this can eventually result in considerable differences in law enforcement. The unclear legal situation may lead to uncertainty for every part perception of their rights and obligations. This paper will seek to identify what should be considered to be applicable law in the legal area.
