The EU’s 2024‑2029 air passenger rights rules give travelers bigger cash payouts for delays, cancellations or denied boarding, free meals and lodging when flights are late, clearer baggage limits, help for kids and disabled people, and easier ways to file complaints, all to make flying fairer and safer.

The EU regulation is a step‑by‑step plan that bans new Russian gas and oil imports by set dates, allows a short window for old contracts, requires approval and monitoring, and imposes heavy fines on anyone who breaks the ban.

The European Parliament approved a resolution that gives Sweden €8.5 million from the Globalisation Adjustment Fund to help workers who lost their jobs when Northvolt went bankrupt, funding training, job‑search support and other services so they can find new work in green and digital industries.
