PRICE MARKING OBLIGATIONS FOR TOUR OPERATORS REGARDING COMMERCIALS FOR HOLIDAY PACKAGES (OGH VOM 11.08.2015, 4 OB 107/15M)
October 12th, 2015A tour operator is not contrary to European Union law or national standards when he adverts in a brochure for holiday packages with prices beginning “at” regarding specific seasons, as long as he shows the seasonal price differences clearly.
However, if the tour operator suggests an allegedly exclusivity of prices and if he does not aim at a concrete addressed audience, he can be accused of misleading business practices.
