Summary

Generated

Regulation (EU) No 181/2011 sets passenger rights for bus and coach travel, applying from 1 March 2013. It covers compensation for accidents, assistance for disabled passengers, and rights on cancellation or delays of 120 minutes or more. Full rules apply to regular services of 250 km or more; shorter routes get a reduced set. National enforcement bodies handle complaints.
