2. Scope<br />
The purpose of this Report is to analyse the air<br />
travel complaints received by the ECC Network in<br />
2005 and to use that as a basis for comment on<br />
the problem areas and to suggest recommendations.<br />
All of the statistics, statements and conclusions<br />
made in the Report are based upon the information<br />
that has been provided by each of the national<br />
ECC offices. The opinions contained in the Report<br />
are not those of the <strong>European</strong> <strong>Commission</strong> or of<br />
national funding bodies.<br />
A copy of the questionnaire sent to all ECCs can<br />
be found at Appendix a.<br />
The cases received by the ECC Net are broken<br />
down into ‘requests for information’ and<br />
‘complaints and disputes’.<br />
A ‘request for information’ means any query by a<br />
consumer regarding a consumer issue where<br />
expert information on EU consumer legislation<br />
and/or advice is given. ‘Complaints and disputes’<br />
mean active complaints where intervention is<br />
necessary on the part of an ECC and where<br />
unresolved the dispute is transferred to an<br />
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) body where<br />
available. ‘Cases’ mean all of the above.<br />
