Abstract

U ovom radu prikazat će se razlike pravnog uređenja prava putnika u zračnom prijevozu između oprečnih pravnih sustava SAD-a i EU sagledavajući kako nacionalne, tako i međunarodne relevantne pravne izvore uzimajući u obzir njihov povijesni kontekst i utjecaj koji su imali u regulaciji prava putnika. Rad će se usredotočiti na temeljna prava putnika na području EU, djelovanje EU u međunarodnim okvirima u svrhu zaštite putnika i ugroženih skupina u prijevozu zrakom, pravima putnika u tzv. paket-aranžmanima te inicijativama za poboljšanje postojeće zaštite unutar EU. U pogledu SAD-a, pažnja će se usmjeriti na dominantan obveznopravni oblik zaštite na području te države, pojedina prava putnika koja su djelomično regulirana od strane nadležnih tijela, proširenu primjenu relevantnih propisa EU na područje SAD-a te nove prijedloge za stvaranje sustavne zakonske zaštite putnika, po uzoru na EU izvore prava, od strane američkog Kongresa. Naposljetku, rad će ukazati na načine i modele ostvarivanja prava putnika u praksi kako unutar EU, tako i na području SAD-a.

Abstract (english)

This thesis will present the differences in the legal regulation of passenger rights in air transport between conflicting legal systems of the USA and the EU, looking at both national and international relevant legal sources, taking into account their historical context and the influence they had in the regulation of passenger rights. The thesis will focus on the fundamental rights of passengers in the EU, actions of the EU internationally for the purposes of protecting passengers and vulnerable groups in air transport, the rights of passengers in the so-called package travel arrangements and initiatives to improve the existing protection within the EU. In terms of the USA, attention will be focused on the dominant contract law form of protection in the territory of that country, individual passenger rights that are partially regulated by the competent authorities, the extended application of relevant EU regulations to the territory of the USA, and new proposals for the creation of a systematic legal protection of passengers, based on the EU regulations, by the US Congress. Finally, the thesis will point out ways and models of exercising passenger rights in practice both within the EU and in the USA.
