What does this mean...?
What is a travel insurance?
With travel insurance, you can receive refunds, for example in case of sickness or cancellation. A travel cancellation insurance will reimburse your cancellation costs, rebooking fees or unused travel services. In the event of a breakdown or accident, it pays before and during the trip. A travel health insurance can protect you from medical treatment, medication or even a hospital stay abroad become your expensive private affair.
We strongly recommend that you take out travel insurance after receiving the booking confirmation from the tour operator. With reliable travel insurance, you can be sure of quick and financial cover in the event of damage – including 24-hour emergency service. Because something unforeseen can always happen.
What is customer payment protection? What is a travel security note?
Since November 1994, tour operators under German law have been obliged pursuant to § 651 k (3) BGB (German Civil Code) to insure customer monies received – i.e. in the event that services are cancelled as a result of insolvency or insolvency of the operator or additional expenses are incurred by the traveller for the return journey.
Since then about operator liability insurance there are similar laws in place throughout the European Union. Also, other countries all over the world have established various regulations for customer payment protection.
A travel security note proves to you as a customer that a travel package operator is providing customer payment protection as an insolvency insurance prescribed in the German travel law with package tours.
A package tour within the meaning of the law is one in which at least two otherwise independent travel services are combined, for example, flight and hotel.
This regulation does not apply to individual services. This means that offers such as pure motorcycle trainings or courses, transportation/shipping or day tours without overnight accommodation do not fall under this regulation as package tours and are accordingly labelled on MOTOURISMO with the statement "operator liability insurance: no".
You can find more details on the subject of customer payment protection and operator liability insurance in the original Directive (EU) 2015/2302 of the European Parliament and of the Council here:
