Sažetak
The fact that ports in the EU-28 handle almost 400 million maritime passengers a year is the best evidence of the relevance of maritime carriage of passengers in EU. In order to enhance protection and rights of passengers while in transport by sea, EU adopted Regulation 392/2009 and Regulation 1177/2010. Regulation 392/2009 incorporates the relevant provisions of 2002 Protocol to the Athens Convention relating to the Carriage of Passengers and their Luggage by Sea, 1974, but also contains some additional provisions to it aiming to obtain complete uniformity within EU as well as suitable protection for passengers. Regulation 1177/2010, on the other hand, establishes rules for sea and inland waterway transport whose main goal is to achieve non-discrimination between passengers with regard to transport conditions offered by carriers and non-discrimination and assistance for disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility. By passing these acts, EU has provided a comprehensive protection of passengers in carriage by sea.
