Over half of Europe’s airline websites could be shut down because of unclear fare conditions and pricing, according to a European Union investigation.
The EU is due to published a report tomorrow showing that more than 50 percent of all websites showed irregularities, according to a report in The Times.
The irregularities in particular relate to price indications, contract terms and clarity of proposed conditions, added the report.
The EU consumer affairs watchdog carried out a probe over one weekend in September, checking 400 airline websites with the help of 15 EU national authorities and Norway.
Although tomorrow’s results will not identify any airlines, the European Commission is set to publish a list of companies concerned in four months’ time.
