Summary/Abstract: The European Commission's legislative proposal from November 2023 amending Directive (EU) 2015/2302 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on package travel and linked travel arrangements amended Regulation (EC) No 2006/2004 and Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealed the previous Council Directive 90/314/EEC may pose difficulties of interpretation. In further stages of work, some solutions will need to be specified or clarified in order to provide a transparent legal basis ensuring a high level of consumer protection, as well as to ensure effective enforcement of consumer rights and better harmonization of the market. In the article, I will present the historical and legal aspects of reaching the solution proposed by the European Commission. As part of the work, I will also present comments on the solutions proposed by EU legislators, as well as de lege ferenda conclusions. The whole thing was based on the dogmatic-exegetical research method, which required studying the institutional approach to the target solution proposed by the European Commission. The article presents my private views and cannot be interpreted as the position of any body or institution.
