EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

1. CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL

• Reasons for and objectives of the proposal

This proposal, together with the proposal for a Rail Ticketing Regulation and the proposed

revision of the Rail Passengers' Rights Regulation1, aims to respond to the challenges

identified in the political guidelines for the European Commission 2024−20292.

Passengers still face significant barriers when trying to search for, compare, combine and

book travel options. An analysis of 100 representative routes in the EU found that multimodal

options were available in 76% of cases. Despite this, very few multimodal digital mobility

services (MDMS) showed options in different modes, and these were rarely combined.

Furthermore, a 2024 Eurobarometer survey of 26,000 EU citizens revealed that one third of

respondents had never booked a multimodal or multi-operator journey. Of those who had,

over a third had encountered booking difficulties, such as being unable to find suitable

combinations or unable to purchase all required tickets in one place, while such difficulties

were even more pronounced with rail tickets.

This proposal is intended to address the lack of transparency, unfair conditions and uneven

playing field in the digital passenger transport ticketing market, on all MDMS active in

aviation, rail, road and waterborne transport. In turn, it will improve the functioning of the

ticket distribution market, thereby ensuring travellers can find all options available, including

multimodal ones. As a result, the competitiveness of the transport services market will also

improve.

These objectives are aligned with the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy3, which is

aimed at improving the competitiveness and sustainability of the transport sector and

making multimodal mobility a reality.

• Consistency with existing policy provisions in the policy area

This proposal has been coordinated with the proposal for a Rail Ticketing Regulation and the

proposed revision of the rail passengers’ rights and obligations Regulation, in order to ensure

a consistent framework that promotes single rail tickets and a well-

functioning digital ticketing market.

The proposal repeals the Code of Conduct for computerised reservation systems (‘CRS Code

of Conduct’4), whilst carrying over and updating the provisions of the CRS Code of Conduct

which remain relevant.

The proposal fits in with other EU laws relating to digital information services, in particular

the ITS Directive5, which establishes a framework for the deployment of intelligent transport

systems in the field of road transport and for interfaces with other modes of transport. The

1 OJ L172, 17.5.2021, p.1. 2 ‘Europe’s choice - Political guidelines for the next European Commission 2024−2029: ‘Cross-border

train travel is still too difficult for many citizens. People should be able to use open booking systems to

purchase trans-European journeys with several providers, without losing their right to reimbursement or

compensatory travel. To this end we will propose a Single Digital Booking and Ticketing Regulation, to

ensure that Europeans can buy one single ticket on one single platform and get passengers’ rights for

their whole trip’. 3 COM/2020/789 final. 4 OJ L 35, 4.2.2009, p.. 47. 5 OJ L 207, 6.8.2010, p. 1.

Delegated Regulation on multimodal travel information services6 (MMTIS) requires

Member States to establish national access points constituting a single point of access for data

users to the static, historic, observed and dynamic travel and traffic data of different transport

modes, for the purpose of providing multimodal travel information services to end users. By

addressing barriers to the development of MDMS for reservation, booking or ticketing, this

proposal therefore complements the existing legislation.

Furthermore, by setting sectorial measures in relation to MDMS, this proposal does not

affect the application and complements the Digital Services Act7, the Digital Markets Act8

and the Data Act9. The proposal will also complement the revised Unfair Commercial

Practices Directive10 with measures which ensure search results on MDMS are displayed in a

neutral way (setting out a list of mandatory ranking criteria), and which prohibit self-

preferencing and paid prominence by allowing advertised content only under certain

conditions.

• Consistency with other Union policies

A climate consistency check has been performed. As shown in the Commission staff working

document the proposal is consistent with the environmental objectives of the European Green

Deal11 and the European Climate Law12.

By requiring MDMS to display information on greenhouse gas emissions and CO2 emissions,

this proposal will also contribute to the objectives of the CountEmissionsEU and Flight

Emission Label initiatives13, setting out a common framework to calculate and report

transport-related greenhouse gas emissions. Transparent information applied on all modes will

enable passengers to choose the most sustainable travel options.

Finally, the proposal contributes to the objectives set out in the Report from the Commission

to the Council on the implementation of the European Tourism Agenda 203014, which

mentions multimodality as a key enabler of competitiveness in the tourism sector. Overall,

this initiative aims to promote a more multimodal and sustainable transport system and

contribute to Sustainable Development Goals SDG#3 ("Ensure healthy lives and promote

wellbeing for all at all ages"), SDG#9 ("Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe,

resilient and sustainable") and SDG#13 ("Climate Action").

2. LEGAL BASIS, SUBSIDIARITY AND PROPORTIONALITY

• Legal basis

The legal basis for this initiative is Article 91(1), point (d) and Article 100(2) of the Title VI.

Article 91 and Article 100(2) establish the EU’s prerogative to pursue the objectives of the

Treaties within the framework of a common transport policy and to set the appropriate rules to

that end. By contributing to the functioning of the transport ticket distribution market in

conformity with the objectives set out in the sustainable and smart mobility strategy15, this

initiative forms part of the common transport policy. The transport ticket distribution market

6 OJ L, 2024/490, 13.2.2024. 7 OJ L 277, 27.10.2022, p. . 1. 8 OJ L 265, 12.10.2022, p. 1. 9 OJ L, 2023/2854, 22.12.2023. 10 OJ L149, 11.6.2005, p. 22. 11 COM (2019)640 final. 12 OJ L 243, 9.7.2021, p . 1 13 OJ L, 2024/3170, 31.12.2024. 14 COM (2025) 763 final. 15 COM/2020/789 final.

EN 3 EN

encompasses services inherently linked to transport services. The initiative thus takes into

account the distinctive features of transport. The application of this initiative will not affect

the standard of living and level of employment in certain regions, nor the operation of

transport facilities.

• Subsidiarity (for non-exclusive competence)

Although some challenges related to ticket distribution and digital access to rail tickets are

being addressed nationally or regionally, an EU-wide approach is needed to reduce the cross-

border impact of these challenges on long-distance travel within the EU and to ensure the

smooth operation of the European transport system.

Discrepancies between Member States in the way they implement new rules on ticket

distribution could further fragment the market, raise costs and reduce benefits for MDMS ,

authorities, operators and transport users. EU-level intervention is therefore needed to prevent

wide variation in Member State strategies and possibly unintended consequences.

• Proportionality

The proposal requires all MDMS providers to respect rules on the neutral display and

their ranking criteria, the sharing of marketing information data, the display of information on

greenhouse gas emissions and carbon dioxide equivalent emissions (when made available to

MDMS providers by transport operators), and on data sharing with transport authorities.

MDMS providers which are SMEs are excluded from the scope of this proposal.

Stricter measures, i.e. those establishing the conditions governing the commercial agreements

between MDMS providers and transport operators, are limited to MDMS providers deemed

indispensable. In the business-to-consumer (B2C) segment, this designation applies only to

MDMS providers that meet threshold criteria defined in this proposal. In the business-to-

business (B2B) segment, all MDMS providers are considered indispensable, due to their

strategic role as an intermediary between travel agents and transport operators. This approach

ensures that the strictest regulatory obligations are imposed exclusively on those entities that

are in a position to exert significant influence over transport operators, including the ability to

impose unfair commercial conditions. Moreover, this approach is fully proportional as it

limits EU level action to what is necessary to address a clear market failure. In that sense, it

does not mandate MDMS providers to enter into commercial agreements, instead establishing

a framework to ensure fairness in such agreements when they exist. By doing so, the proposed

measures foster a well-functioning transport ticketing market while maintaining

proportionality.

• Choice of the instrument

To ensure a well-functioning digital ticketing market, a common approach is needed so that

conditions are harmonised across the EU. This is best achieved through a Regulation.

3. RESULTS OF EX-POST EVALUATIONS, STAKEHOLDER

CONSULTATIONS AND IMPACT ASSESSMENTS

• Ex-post evaluations/fitness checks of existing legislation

Computerised reservation systems (CRSs) are a particular type of MDMS active in the B2B

segment. A code of conduct was adopted in 1989 to prevent possible anti-competitive

behaviour by CRSs. It was later revised in 2009 to regulate the B2B transactions between

CRS providers on the one hand, and air and rail carriers and travel agents on the other hand.

The Code of Conduct was subsequently evaluated in 2020 - to assess whether, in the light of

market and technological changes in B2B ticket distribution, it is still relevant in achieving

EN 4 EN

the objectives of (i) preventing distortion of competition between CRSs owned by parent

carriers, and (ii) ensuring fair and effective competition between carriers; and whether it

remained fit for purpose in the face of broader horizontal legislation. The evaluation

concluded that the code of conduct had not been ensuring a fully level playing field for all

participating carriers as regards access to and use of CRS services as it failed to improve the

balance in the bargaining power between different-sized air carriers in relation to CRSs. Some

air carriers expressed concerns about specific clauses in their contracts with CRS providers

which reduced the ability of airlines to use alternative booking systems or technology.

Moreover, the evaluation concluded that transparency requirements, i.e. a neutral display,

remained important, as travel agents, both offline and online, and travel management

companies still relied heavily on CRS, especially for business travel. The evaluation also

concluded that specific sectoral treatment of traditional CRS providers was possibly no

longer justified in view of market and technological developments in air ticket distribution

(increased internet usage, emergence of other channels and divestment of CRS ownership by

airlines).

• Stakeholder consultations

This proposal and the proposal for a Rail Ticketing Regulation are underpinned by the same

impact assessment. To prepare for the impact assessment, various stakeholder consultation

activities were carried out with the aim of gathering both qualitative (opinions, views,

suggestions) and quantitative (data, statistics) information. These activities were carried out

between 2020 and 2025, initially only for the purposes of the review of the CRS Code

of Conduct in December 2020, subsequently also for the impact assessment supporting the

Regulation on multimodal booking (RMB) and a Rail Ticketing Regulation. Citizens were

consulted on five occasions, specifically for two inception impact assessments (IIA), two

online open public consultations (OPC) and a Eurobarometer survey16.

For the CRS Code of Conduct, an IIA ran from 9 July 2020 until 4 September 2020 to gather

feedback from stakeholders. A total of 13 responses were received. For the RMB proposal, an

IIA ran from 5 October 2021 until 2 November 2021 to gather feedback from stakeholders. A

total of 40 responses were received. An OPC for the CRS Code of Conduct was launched via

the Commission’s ‘Have your say’ platform on 23 February 2021 and ran until 18 May 2021.

A total of 23 responses were received from citizens and organisations. An OPC for the

MDMS proposal was launched17, on the Commission’s ‘Have your say’ platform on 1

December 2021 and ran until 23 February 2022. A total of 336 responses were received from

individuals and organisations.

A Eurobarometer survey was conducted during the summer of 2024, the results of which were

published by the Commission on 1 April 2025. The aim of the survey was to collect

information on booking and ticketing practices and experiences from representative sample of

the EU population, aged 15 and over, from each of the 27 Member States. In total, 25 805

interviews were conducted via the online survey. The survey provided insights into the travel

habits, preferences and experiences of the EU public, particularly regarding regional and

long-distance journeys. It examined key aspects, such as: (1) frequency of travel for leisure

and work, (2) factors influencing travel planning and booking decisions, (3) attitudes towards

environmentally friendly travel, (4) usage of different transport modes and multimodal

journeys, (5) ease of booking multimodal and multi-operator journeys, and (6) barriers to

combining different transport modes or operators. The results notably highlighted the

EN 5 EN

obstacles people encounter when looking for sustainable travel options online, as well as their

willingness to book such journeys. It also identified the difficulties people experience when

booking multimodal and multi-operator journeys, and the extra burden they face when

booking multi-operator rail journeys.

• Collection and use of expertise

The impact assessment accompanying this proposal relied on an external study carried out by

a consultant.

Stakeholders provided a significant amount of additional information by way of targeted

consultation activities (surveys, interviews and workshops). In particular they provided

detailed information on the market structure and business practices in the different MDMS

segments (B2C and B2B), which helped confirm information from previous studies and

inform the modelling assumptions and analysis.

The information received covered aspects such as typical provisions (in particular regarding

distribution fees) in commercial agreements offered by MDMS to operators, display practices

on MDMS, trends in the digital distribution market and B2B distribution market; interactions

between CRSs, travel agents and carriers, and the share and role of SMEs in different types of

MDMS.

Overall, the impact assessment drew on a vast number of comprehensive sources which were

representative of the various stakeholders’ groups.

• Impact assessment

This proposal is accompanied by an impact assessment report. Following a negative opinion

from the Regulatory Scrutiny Board (RSB) on 13 September 2023, a draft impact

assessment report was resubmitted to the RSB on 10 March 2026. The RSB issued a positive

opinion with reservations on 13 April 2026. The impact assessment report was adjusted

accordingly to address the RSB’s comments.

The impact assessment screened a comprehensive list of possible policy measures and

options, based on the likely effectiveness, efficiency and proportionality of the proposed

measures in relation to the given objectives, as well as their legal and technical feasibility.

Four policy options were evaluated as part of the impact assessment, which was conducted

jointly for this proposal and for the proposal for a Rail Ticketing Regulation.

Policy option 1 proposed a minimalist approach. It contained policy measures common to all

four policy options including measures that establish minimal requirements for ensuring fair

treatment of information and data on MDMS. It also set out the key principles for all

commercial agreements between indispensable MDMS providers and transport operators, and

between indispensable railway undertakings (RUs) and MDMS providers.

This option fully addresses the first specific objective of improving transparency and

establishing a level playing field for transport operators on MDMS by extending the rules of

the CRS Code of Conduct to all MDMS providers. It sets thresholds for identifying MDMS

providers and RUs with significant market presence, which would be designated by national

enforcement bodies or the European Commission depending on the market in which they have

significant market presence. The Commission would publish a list of MDMS providers with

significant market presence. Such measures would be needed to ensure transport operators are

protected in commercial agreements with indispensable MDMS providers, including by

means of provisions that (1) safeguard commercially sensitive data of operators, (2) prohibit

the inclusion of unjustified or unnecessary contract conditions that could prevent the

conclusion of the agreement, and (3) ensure the remuneration received by MDMS providers is

EN 6 EN

based on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory criteria. Under this policy option, Member

States would be required to appoint a national authority to settle possible disputes between

parties. Moreover, an EU-level network of such authorities would be set up to ensure

consistent enforcement across the EU. In addition, MDMS providers would be required to

display information on greenhouse gas emissions and CO2 emissions, where that information

is provided by the transport operator, while B2C MDMS would have to share data with the

public authorities for mobility management purposes.

To ensure the range of rail services offered on MDMS is more comprehensive, this policy

option offers protection under the proposal for Rail Ticketing Regulation to MDMS providers

in their commercial agreements with indispensable RUs by setting rules on distribution fees

and prohibiting restrictive clauses in contracts (exclusivity clauses, unfair and unjustified

conditions, marketing clauses and other technical restrictions), thereby addressing imbalances

in bargaining power during the negotiation of commercial agreements.

Policy options 2, 3 and 4 build on policy option 1 and were specific to the Regulation on Rail

Ticketing proposal.

• Regulatory fitness and simplification

While the initiative introduces a new obligation for Member States to designate indispensable

MDMS and to settle disputes between parties, the additional administrative burden for public

authorities is kept to a minimum. The proposal builds on the fact that Member States already

have competent authorities responsible for resolving disputes in relevant areas, such as

competition authorities, transport regulatory authorities, and rail regulators.

• Fundamental rights

The proposal would not have any negative material impact on fundamental rights or data

protection. Data protection for B2C MDMS users is ensured by the General Data Protection

Regulation, which offers uniform protection of individuals. Furthermore, for B2B MDMS, the

entry into force of the General Data Protection Regulation is a key reason for revising and

repealing the CRS Code of Conduct’s rules on data protection. This example of regulatory

simplification will remove the duplicate rules, eliminating any scope for potential

inconsistencies.

4. BUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS

Two full-time equivalent (FTE) employees would be needed to support the Commission in

designating MDMS providers with significant market presence, streamlining coordination

with national enforcement bodies, and maintaining an accurate, up-to-date public register,

ensuring market transparency and effective enforcement.

5. OTHER ELEMENTS

• Implementation plans and monitoring, evaluation and reporting arrangements

The Commission will monitor the implementation of this Regulation through several actions

and a set of core indicators that will measure progress towards achieving the objectives. At

the latest five years after the start of implementation of the legislation, the Commission will

assess to what extent the objectives of this Regulation have been met.

Synergies between this proposal and the proposal for a Rail Ticketing Regulation and the

interplay with the revision of the Rail Passenger Rights Regulation will also need to be

analysed.

EN 7 EN

Improvements in the online ticketing market will be assessed through market monitoring

carried out by national enforcement bodies and the Commission. Information on penalties will

be shared between authorities in the EU enforcement network in order to support

coordination. Consumer satisfaction in the EU will be measured every two years through

Eurobarometer surveys looking into the availability of travel information and ease of booking

for travellers.

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee1,

Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions2,

Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure,

Whereas:

(1) Multimodal transport has the potential to enhance the sustainability and efficiency of

the Union transport system and in turn support the objectives of the European Green

Deal3, of the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy4 and of Regulation (EU)

2021/1119 of the European Parliament and of the Council5, mandating that Member

States reduce net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by at least 55% by 2030

(compared to 1990 levels), by 90% by 2040, and achieve climate neutrality by 2050.

For passenger transport, the shift towards a multimodal transport system could be

supported by business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer (B2C) multimodal

digital mobility service (MDMS) providers, making it easier for end users and

business users to find, compare, combine and buy suitable transport products for their

journey. Those B2B and B2C MDMS providers run services providing traffic and

travel information for long-distance travel (such as schedules, tariffs and service

availability) and allowing distribution of tickets, either directly or via re-linking, for

two or more transport operators in at least one transport mode.

(2) To support fair competition and innovation, common rules should be established to

ensure a level playing field in the ticket distribution market, in particular regarding the

visibility, accessibility and distribution of long-distance and regional transport services

offered within the Union. Those rules should ensure that end users and business users

are able to purchase the most appropriate travel option, including journeys combining

services across one or more transport modes or provided by multiple transport

operators.

(3) Regulation (EC) No 80/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council6 aims to

ensure fair and unbiased conditions for air carriers and rail carriers in computerised

reservation systems (CRSs), which in turn safeguards consumer interests. In the light

of ongoing technological and market developments, it is essential to extend these

principles of fairness and impartiality to emerging business models that perform

functions comparable to those of CRSs.

(4) To ensure equal treatment of all carriers, providers of business-to-business multimodal

digital mobility services should fall within the scope of this Regulation if business

users can access their services and transport products from the Union, i.e. when the

point of sale is in the Union. They should also fall within the scope of this Regulation

even if the point of sale is outside of the Union but the transport product’s underlying

transport service is provided, wholly or partially, within the territory of the Union.

(5) The obligations imposed on MDMS providers under this Regulation should be without

prejudice to Regulation (EU) XXX (RTR) of the European Parliament and of the

Council.

(6) The obligations imposed on MDMS providers under this Regulation should be without

prejudice to Regulations (EU) 2022/20657 and (EU) 2022/19258 of the European

Parliament and of the Council. In particular, by establishing an obligation of neutral

display of transport products or the combination of transport products for B2B and

B2C MDMS according to specific ranking criteria, this Regulation aims only to

complement, but not to affect, any of the obligations imposed on intermediary service

providers under Regulation (EU) 2022/2065, including online platforms and online

search engines within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065, in the Union.

Similarly, the obligations imposed on B2C MDMS providers with significant market

presence and B2B MDMS providers aim to complement Regulation (EU) 2022/1925,

as this Regulation applies similar requirements to services which, despite

being outside the scope of Regulation (EU) 2022/1925, may nonetheless still be

indispensable for business-users or end-users.

(7) Since a transport product offered by a transport operator at least partially under a code

share arrangement or an interlining agreement aims to increase connectivity for

operator’s own passengers, transport products offered under such agreements should

be considered transport products of the marketing transport operator only and not a

transport product of two or more transport operators.

(8) B2C MDMS providers may account for a significant share of the total value or volume

of tickets sold at Union or national level, in one or several transport modes, and

therefore constitute a predominant point of access for end users. Such a position may

result from a strong or established presence in the underlying transport markets,

leading to strong incentives to promote some transport products, to the detriment of

competitors. That strategic position vis-à-vis end users may enable those B2C MDMS

providers to influence access to the online ticket distribution market, including by

limiting opportunities for new entrants or by imposing unjustified contractual

conditions affecting participating transport operators. Such conditions may include the

introduction of disproportionately high distribution fees or unfair data processing and

information sharing practices. Given their central role, those B2C MDMS providers

should be designated as providers with significant market presence for each of the

relevant transport modes, and in the relevant geographical area where that is the case.

Designated MDMS providers should therefore be subject to additional rules necessary

to ensure fair competition, transparency and non-discriminatory cooperation with

transport operators. Meta-search engines (MSEs) only re-linking transport products are

not directly selling transport products and therefore do not hold a significant market

presence for distribution.

(9) Websites or applications of transport operators which only offer the operator’s own

transport products or those of operators belonging to their own group do not constitute

an MDMS as they do not offer transport products of competitors. As such, they are

clearly identifiable to consumers. Furthermore, those websites do not offer similar

services to those provided by an MDMS, such as aggregation and comparison of

competitors' transport products. Unlike MDMS, online search engines, as defined in

Article 2, point (5), of Regulation (EU) 2019/1150 of the European Parliament and of

the Council9, allow users to input queries in order to perform searches of, in principle,

all websites, or all websites in a particular language, including, but not limited

to websites where transport products are sold. The sole fact that an online search

engine returns results that include transport products should not be sufficient to

consider it as a B2C MDMS.

(10) B2B MDMS providers function as commercial partners of air and rail carriers, travel

agents and travel management companies. An important share of airline reservations is

made through B2B MDMS providers, making them key gateways for

reaching business users and ultimately end users. The strategic position of B2B

MDMS providers enables them to influence carriers' access to travel agents and travel

management companies and therefore to end users. Given their central role, B2B

MDMS providers should be governed by additional obligations necessary to

ensure fair competition, transparency and non-discriminatory cooperation.

(11) B2C MDMS providers designated as having significant market presence within a

given Member State for a particular mode of transport should not be exempt from the

responsibility of informing the national authorities of other Member States of their

significant market presence within those jurisdictions so that they may, if relevant,

also be designated in those Member States.

(12) Where B2C MDMS providers with significant market presence and B2B MDMS

providers enter into commercial agreements with transport operators, they should

EN 11 EN

respect certain conditions. In particular, such providers should not make participation

to their service subject to exclusivity clauses, or impose restrictions limiting the

operator’s ability to freely use alternative reservation channels, including their own

internet booking platform, direct connect systems or call centres. This is because such

practices could create barriers to market entry for competing services and / or transport

operators, reduce consumer choice, and ultimately distort the level playing field

necessary for a competitive and innovative market environment. Pricing or other

general conditions should be considered unfair if they lead to an imbalance of rights

and obligations imposed on transport operators or confer an advantage on the B2B

MDMS provider or the B2C MDMS provider with significant market presence which

is disproportionate to the service provided by the MDMS provider to transport

operators. The following benchmarks can serve as a yardstick to determine the fairness

of the pricing and other general conditions: prices charged or conditions imposed for

the same or similar services by other MDMS providers; prices charged or conditions

imposed by the MDMS provider for different related or similar services or to different

types of users; prices charged or conditions imposed by the MDMS provider for the

same service in different geographic regions; prices charged or conditions imposed by

the MDMS provider for the same service that it provides to the transport operator

integrated with it. Where a B2C MDMS provider has been designated as B2C MDMS

provider with significant market presence at Union level, it should comply with those

specific rules across the Union.

(13) The obligations imposed on MDMS providers under this Regulation should be without

prejudice to Article 101 and Article 102 of the Treaty on Functioning of the European

Union (TFEU) and to the application of national competition rules. This Regulation

aims to protect a different legal interest from that protected by Union competition

rules. The Commission should receive information annually from B2C MDMS

providers to monitor the evolution of the ticketing markets and their interaction with

transport operators and users. Where developments may result in harm to competition,

transport operators or users in any of the transport modes and main segments at

national and Union level, or the related ticketing services, the Commission may

address them under existing tools, including Articles 101 and 102 TFEU or may

consider other action such as coordinating with relevant authorities in the Member

States.

(14) It follows that the market processes are often incapable of ensuring fair economic

outcomes with regard to MDMS providers. Although Articles 101 and 102 TFEU

apply to the conduct of MDMS providers, the scope of those provisions is limited to

certain instances of market power, for example dominance on specific markets and of

anti-competitive behaviour, and enforcement occurs ex post and requires an extensive

investigation of often very complex facts on a case-by-case basis. Moreover, existing

Union law does not address, or does not address effectively, the challenges to the

effective functioning of the internal market posed by the conduct of MDMS providers

that are not necessarily dominant in competition-law terms.

(15) In order to protect the interests of consumers and increase their trust in MDMSs,

transport products presented to business users and end users on B2B and B2C

MDMSs should be displayed in a manner that ensures no transport operator is unfairly

favoured over another transport operator. The provisions regarding the neutral display

EN 12 EN

of final price and travel time outlined in this Regulation should be without prejudice to

the application of existing rules on paid advertisement10.

(16) In accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008 of the European Parliament and of

the Council11, air carriers fares displayed to the public are to be inclusive of all

applicable taxes, and charges, surcharges and fees which are unavoidable and

foreseeable at the time of publication. Optional price supplements are to be

communicated in a clear, transparent and unambiguous way at the start of any booking

process. Air carriers and B2B MDMS providers should ensure that B2C MDMS

receive information on fares in such a way that those intermediaries can fulfil their

obligations under Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008. When displaying

information, B2C MDMS providers are to respect the requirements set out in Directive

(EU) 2019/882 of the European Parliament and of the Council12 and in particular offer

audio-visual options.

(17) B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers should display greenhouse gas and

carbon dioxide equivalent emissions’ data where such information is supplied by

transport operators. Making such data visible to users enhances transparency, enables

more informed decision-making and supports the broader objective of promoting

environmentally sustainable transport choices. By clearly presenting emissions

information, MDMS providers can help raise awareness of the environmental impact

of different travel options and encourage a shift towards lower-emission alternatives.

Since they do not hold the information themselves, MDMS providers should not be

bound by any additional obligations on displaying emissions data and should display

the data provided by the transport operators in accordance with the applicable

legislation. When sharing emissions’ data with MDMS providers, transport operators

should comply with the requirements laid down in Regulation (EU) XX/XX (CEEU),

including where applicable in accordance with the Commission Implementing

Regulation (EU) 2024/317013, Article 6 of which provides that airlines are only

allowed to display flight emissions in accordance with that Implementing Regulation.

(18) The requirements on neutral display should not apply to B2B MDMS providers where

their services are used by a transport operator or a group of transport operators at its

own offices or sales counters or on websites clearly identified as its own, as there is no

risk of one transport operator being favoured over another in such circumstances.

(19) Air carriers from the Union and from third countries should be given equivalent

treatment regarding B2B and B2C MDMS services.

(20) Public authorities need data to support the planning of public transport services and

the broader mobility system, including the development and evaluation of Sustainable

Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs). MDMS data can help assess the attractiveness of

public transport services, verify the adequacy of current offerings (for example, lines,

frequencies, timetables, multimodality efficiency), and evaluate infrastructure (for

example, bus lanes, cycle tracks). This data can also support the design of new

mobility products, packages, and demand studies.

(21) In order to achieve the objective of this Regulation to establish common Union rules

for B2C MDMS providers with significant market presence at national or Union level,

the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 TFEU should be delegated to

the Commission to amend the thresholds for the designation of B2C MDMS providers

with significant market presence at national or Union’s level. It is of particular

importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its

preparatory work, including at expert level, and that those consultations be conducted

in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement of 13

April 2016 on Better Law-Making14. In particular, to ensure equal participation in the

preparation of delegated acts, the European Parliament and the Council receive all

documents at the same time as Member States experts, and their experts systematically

have access to meetings of Commission expert groups dealing with the preparation of

delegated acts.

(22) Implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission to designate B2C

MDMS providers with significant market presence in the Union and, in case of

discrimination in the third country, require B2B MDMS providers operating in the

Union to treat air carriers from that third country in a manner that is equivalent to the

treatment of Union air carriers in that third country. Those powers should be exercised

in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of

the Council15.

(23) Where a provider designated as a B2C MDMS provider with significant market

presence in one or several Member States is designated as B2C MDMS provider with

significant market power at Union level, the Member States where the B2C MDMS

provider was designated as having a significant market remains competent to enforce

this Regulation against that B2C MDMS provider for the period preceding its

designation as B2C MDMS provider with significant market power at Union level.

(24) The objective of this Regulation, namely to establish common rules for B2B and B2C

MDMS providers in relation to transport products offered or used in the Union, cannot

be adequately met by Member States acting alone. This is due to the cross-border

nature of digital mobility services and the need to ensure interoperability, consistency,

and legal certainty across national markets. To avoid market fragmentation and ensure

a level playing field for transport operators and MDMS providers across the Union,

action at Union level is necessary. As a result, the Union may adopt measures in

accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on

European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality as set out in that

Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that

objective.

(25) Due to market and technological changes some provisions of Regulation (EC) No

80/2009 are no longer relevant, while some provisions remain relevant but are no

longer fit for purpose and need to be updated. The specific rules for parent carriers are

no longer relevant as airlines have fully divested their CRS ownership. Consequently,

the associated auditing and reporting requirements regarding their ownership and

structure should also be repealed, since they are intrinsically linked to those rules. The

provisions on the protection of personal data are now consistently enforced across the

Union under the rules of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of

the Council16. Section 6 of Regulation (EC) No 80/2009 on infringements and

penalties is superseded by the rules set out in this Regulation. The other remaining

provisions of Regulation (EC) No 80/2009 should be retained, as they continue to be

relevant and updated to reflect market and technological changes in order to ensure a

level playing field between all providers performing similar functions in business-to-

business digital reservation services. In particular, the rules on the use of a neutral

display should be updated to offer all providers greater flexibility for ranking transport

products in accordance with new technological developments. Regulation (EC) No

80/2009 should therefore be repealed and the relevant provisions incorporated into

this Regulation,

HAVE ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

B2C MDMS providers with significant market presence and B2B

MDMS providers

Article 4

Designation of B2C MDMS providers with significant market presence

1. B2C MDMS providers shall, each year, inform the Commission and the Member

State of their establishment, of the number and value of tickets sold per transport

mode per year per Member State.

2. A B2C MDMS provider shall be designated as a B2C MDMS provider with

significant market presence at Union level for each transport mode in which it meets

the thresholds laid down in point 1 of Annex I. To that end, a B2C MDMS provider

that meets those thresholds shall, for each transport mode concerned, notify that fact

to the Commission. A designation pursuant to this paragraph shall take precedence

over any designation concerning the same transport mode at national level.

3. A B2C MDMS provider shall be designated as a B2C MDMS provider with

significant market presence at national level for each transport mode in which it

meets the thresholds laid down in point 2 of Annex I. To that end, B2C MDMS

providers that meet those thresholds shall, for each transport mode concerned, notify

that fact to the national enforcement body of the Member State in which they have

met those thresholds.

4. By way of derogation from the obligation in paragraph 3 of this Article to notify

national enforcement bodies when it meets the thresholds laid down in point 2 of

Annex I, a B2C MDMS provider that meets the thresholds laid down in both points 1

and 2 of Annex I, shall, for each transport mode concerned, notify only the

Commission of that fact.

5. B2C MDMS providers shall submit all the notifications and information referred to

in paragraphs 1 to 4 of this Article by 31 January of the year following the financial

year for which the thresholds laid down in Annex I are assessed. By way of

derogation from the obligation in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Article to notify either

the Commission or the relevant national enforcement bodies when it meets the

thresholds laid down in either points 1 or 2 of Annex I, a B2C MDMS provider that

has been designated in accordance with either of those paragraphs shall not be

obliged to submit any subsequent notification for the modes of transport concerned

unless the thresholds laid down in Annex I are modified in accordance with

paragraph 9 of this Article.

6. For the purposes of assessing whether they meet the thresholds laid down in points 1

and 2 of Annex I, B2C MDMS providers shall take into account all ticket sales of all

of their subsidiaries.

7. The designating authority shall adopt a decision designating a B2C MDMS provider

as having significant market presence when they meet the thresholds laid down in

EN 18 EN

points 1 or 2 of Annex I. The Commission shall adopt designation decisions by

means of implementing acts. Those implementing acts shall be adopted in

accordance with the advisory procedure referred to in Article 17(2).

The designating authority shall take its decision on the basis of the information

submitted by the B2C MDMS provider in accordance with paragraphs 1, 2 or 3 of

this Article or any other information available to it. The B2C MDMS provider shall

communicate to the designating authority, upon its request and within a reasonable

timeframe, and in any case within two months, any additional information needed for

the purpose of the assessment of its significant market presence. B2C MDMS

providers which do not submit the requested information within the

established timeframe may be designated, without undue delay, based on any other

information available to the designating authority.

The designating authority shall adopt that decision within six months from the

notification referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Article or, where applicable,

after an assessment concluding that the B2C MDMS provider meets the thresholds

laid down in Annex I, and in any case at the latest by 1 November of the year

following the financial year in which the thresholds laid down in Annex I are met.

National enforcement bodies shall notify oftheir decisions, designating a B2C

MDMS provider as having significant market presence to the Commission within

one month from the adoption of the decision. The Commission shall, without undue

delay, publish on a dedicated webpage and keep up to date a list of the B2C MDMS

providers designated at national and Union level.

8. The designating authority shall terminate the designation if, during an uninterrupted

period of one year, the B2C MDMS provider has not met the thresholds laid down in

points 1 and 2 of Annex I, for the transport mode in which it has been designated.

The rules laid down in paragraphs 1 to 7 of this Article shall apply mutatis mutandis

to the termination of designation.

9. The Commission is empowered to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article

16 concerning the amendment of the thresholds laid down in Annex I, in order to

adapt the thresholds to changes in the B2C MDMS market.

Article 5

Conditions for commercial agreements between transport operators and B2C MDMS

providers with significant market presence or B2B MDMS providers

1. B2C MDMS providers shall comply with the rules laid down in this Article in

relation to the transport mode for which they have been designated pursuant to

Article 4(2) and (3) and in the Member States to which that designation relates.

2. When concluding commercial agreements with transport operators, B2C MDMS

providers designated as having significant market presence in the transport mode

concerned, and B2B MDMS providers, shall:

(a) provide guarantees to ensure that commercially sensitive data shared by transport

operators are not disclosed, including to other transport operators using the same

MDMS, or to transport operators vertically integrated with the B2C MDMS provider,

or to other B2B MDMS providers;

(b) not attach any unfair conditions or exclusivity clauses to the commercial agreement

that would, intentionally or otherwise:

EN 19 EN

(i) hinder or prevent transport operators from concluding commercial

agreements with other B2C MDMS providers or B2B MDMS providers

for the effective use of their services;

(ii) require the acceptance of any supplementary conditions that, by their

nature or according to commercial usage, would not be necessary for the

distribution or re-linking of transport products;

(iii) make it a condition that a participating transport operator is forbidden at

the same time from using another system or that a participating transport

operator is forbidden from freely using alternative reservation systems

such as its own direct connect system, internet booking system and call

centres;

(c) ensure that where remuneration for the services of the B2C MDMS provider or the

B2B MDMS provider is agreed with the transport operator, remuneration levels are

based on fair, reasonable and non-discriminatory criteria.

3. B2B MDMS providers shall:

(a) not reserve any specific loading or processing procedures, any other

distribution facilities or any changes to those procedures or facilities, for

certain transport operators;

(b) provide the same information to all participating transport operators about

changes to their distribution facilities, loading procedures and processing

procedures;

(c) ensure that their distribution facilities are separated in a clear and verifiable

manner from any transport operator’s private inventory, management

facilities and marketing facilities.

Article 6

Conditions for commercial agreements between B2B MDMS providers and business

users

1. Commercial agreements between B2B MDMS providers and business users shall not

intentionally or otherwise:

(a) hinder or prevent a business user from subscribing to or using effectively any

other similar system;

(b) require the acceptance of additional conditions which are not necessary for the

subscription to the B2B MDMS;

(c) impose an obligation to accept specific technical equipment or software;

(d) impose any other unfair or unjustified conditions.

2. Where a business user is a small enterprise within the meaning of Article 2(2) of the

Annex to Recommendation 2003/361/EC it may terminate its commercial agreement

with a B2B MDMS provider any time after the first year of that agreement. To that

end, it shall give written notice, which shall not exceed three months. In such a case,

a B2B MDMS provider shall not be entitled to recover more than the administrative

costs directly related to the termination of the commercial agreement.

Chapter 3

General obligations of B2C MDMS and B2B MDMS providers in

relation to the display and exchange of information

Article 7

Neutral display and ranking criteria

1. When displaying transport products or a combination of transport products, B2C

MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall load and process data provided by

transport operators with equal care and in a timely manner.

2. When B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers display transport products

or a combination of transport products, they shall do so in a neutral and

comprehensive manner, without discrimination or bias.

3. Transport operators shall ensure that the data submitted to B2C MDMS providers

and B2B MDMS providers is accurate, up to date and allows the provider to comply

with the rules set out in this Article.

4. B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall apply the criteria referred to

in paragraph 5 to rank the transport products and combinations of transport

products on a non-discriminatory basis to all transport operators. Those criteria shall

not be based on any factor directly or indirectly related to the transport operator’s

identity, unless explicitly required by the end user or business user. B2C MDMS

providers and B2B MDMS providers shall display transport products

and combinations of transport products in such a way that the end user or business

user is not misled, and can easily access them, the display criteria are clearly

indicated, and the rules set out in this Article are met.

5. When displaying transport products or a combination of transport products, B2C

MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall by default rank the transport

products or combinations of transport products based on one or more of the

following criteria:

(a) final price;

(b) travel time;

(c) greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions;

(d) CO2 equivalent emissions;

(e) products including a single-leg transport service ranked by departure time;

(f) products including stops and available subsequent connecting transport

services, ranked by departure time and total travel time;

(g) accessible transport services for persons with disabilities or reduced mobility.

6. B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall always present final prices

to end users or business users when displaying transport products or a combination of

transport products. For air services, those shall be presented in accordance with

Article 23 of Regulation (EC) No 1008/2008.

7. B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall always allow end users and

business users to rank transport products or a combination of transport products on

the basis of GHG emissions or CO2 equivalent emissions.

EN 21 EN

8. B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall enable end users

and business users to use or combine any of the criteria listed in paragraph 5, points

(a) to (g), in any order.

9. B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers shall display a transport

product only once within a given search result. By way of derogation, in case of

code-share arrangements, each of the two code-share transport operators shall be

allowed to ask for the relevant transport products to be displayed as their own

service, using their own individual carrier designator code. Where more than two

transport operators participate in a code-share agreement, identification of the two

carriers for the purposes of the display shall fall within the responsibility of the

transport operator that actually operates the journey.

10. When displaying transport products or a combination of transport products, B2C

MDMS providers and B2B MDMS providers may use other ranking criteria in

addition to those laid down in paragraph 5, if explicitly requested by the end user or

client of the business user. When displaying final prices, B2B MDMS providers shall

communicate any optional price supplements to business users in a clear and

transparent manner.

11. B2C MDMS providers may accept direct or indirect payment from transport

operators in order to display those operators prominently. Such ‘paid prominence’

shall not be one of the default ranking criteria and shall only be available upon

request by the end user. The offers to which that criterion has been applied shall be

clearly displayed with the indication “choice of” or “sponsored content”. The effects

of the payment on the ranking shall be transparently described.

12. Flights operated by air carriers subject to an operating ban pursuant to Regulation

(EC) No 2111/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council18 shall be clearly

and specifically identified by B2C MDMS providers and B2B MDMS

providers when they display transport products. The B2C MDMS providers and B2B

MDMS providers shall include a specific symbol when they display transport

products which shall inform end users and business users of the identity of the

party for use by that party for reasons other than billing settlement.

Article 9

Information on greenhouse gas emissions and carbon dioxide equivalent emissions

1. MDMS providers shall display clear, transparent and accessible information on the

GHG emissions or CO2 equivalent emissions, as applicable, of transport products,

wherever such information is made available by transport operators. That

information shall be displayed as provided by the transport operator, in accordance

with Regulation (EU) XXX of the European Parliament and of the Council CEEU,

including where applicable in accordance with Implementing Regulation (EU)

2024/3170.

2. If the information referred to in paragraph 1 is not available for all transport products

included in a combination of transport products, the B2C MDMS provider or B2B

MDMS provider shall specify which transport products the information relates to and

explicitly indicate which transport products lack information on GHG emissions or

CO2 equivalent emissions.

3. When ranking transport products or a combination of transport products on the basis

of GHG emissions or CO2 equivalent emissions, B2C MDMS providers or B2B

MDMS providers shall display the transport products or combination of transport

products for which such information is not available at the end of the ranking. Where

information is only partially available for a part of the journey, B2C MDMS

providers or B2B MDMS providers shall display that product in the ranking order

lower than the display of transport products or a combination of transport products

for which all information is available.

Article 10

Sharing of data with public transport authorities

1. Upon request of a public transport authority, and provided that they offer transport

products within the territory under the responsibility of that authority, B2C MDMS

providers shall transmit passenger volumes data in each transport mode covered by

the MDMS. Such data shall be used exclusively to improve the effectiveness of

public transport policies and sustainable mobility policies falling under the

responsibility of that authority. The data shall be aggregated and anonymised. B2C

MDMS providers shall only be required to share data already in their possession and

shall not be obliged to produce new data in response to a request from a public

transport authority.

EN 23 EN

2. Requests referred to in paragraph 1 shall clearly indicate the specific objective of

transport policies or sustainable mobility policies for which the data is needed. The

public transport authority shall not use the data for any other purpose than to support

the design, implementation and evaluation of public transport policies. The public

transport authority shall not use or share the requested data for commercial purposes.

3. Public transport authorities shall cover the costs reasonably incurred by the B2C

MDMS provider for providing the data requested by that authority.

Article 11

Equivalent treatment of air carriers in third countries

1. Without prejudice to international agreements to which the Union or Member States

are parties, where a B2B MDMS provider operating in a third country does not treat

Union air carriers and carriers from that third country to whom it provides services in

an equivalent way with regard to any of the matters covered by this Regulation, the

Commission may require, by means of an implementing act adopted in accordance

with the procedure referred to in Article 17(2), all B2B MDMS providers operating

in the Union to treat air carriers from that third country in a manner that is equivalent

to the treatment of Union air carriers in that third country.

2. For the purposes of paragraph 1, the Commission shall monitor discriminatory or

non-equivalent treatment of Union air carriers by B2B MDMS providers in third

countries. At the request of a Member State or on its own initiative, the Commission

shall investigate potential cases of discrimination against Union air carriers in B2B

MDMS in third countries. Before taking a decision in accordance with paragraph 1,

the Commission shall inform the interested parties.

LEGISLATIVE FINANCIAL AND DIGITAL STATEMENT

1. FRAMEWORK OF THE PROPOSAL/INITIATIVE

1.1. Title of the proposal/initiative

Proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF

THE COUNCIL on Multimodal Booking

1.2. Policy area(s) concerned

Transport, Digital Services

1.3. Objective(s)

1.3.1. General objective(s)

Better functioning of the online ticket distribution market

1.3.2. Specific objective(s)

Specific objective

Improve transparency and establish a level playing field for transport operators in

terms of access and use of indispensable multimodal digital mobility services

(MDMS).

1.3.3. Expected result(s) and impact

Specify the effects which the proposal/initiative should have on the

beneficiaries/groups targeted.

The initiative is expected to have positive impacts on MDMS, transport operators

(with net benefits for each group), competitiveness and functioning of the internal

market as well as innovation. The proposal is also expected to impact modal shift

towards more sustainable transport modes, thereby positively impacting transport

safety, CO2 emissions and air pollutants.

1.3.4. Indicators of performance

Specify the indicators for monitoring progress and achievements.

The main milestones considered for monitoring progress and achievements of the

objective are to (i) achieve fair and non-discriminatory commercial agreement

negotiations, (ii) ensure unbiased display of travel options for end-users on all

MDMS and (iii) minimise unjustified price divergence for identical offers across

services. Progress towards this objective will be monitored using four key indicators

(compared to the baseline described in the impact assessment accompanying the

proposal): (i) the number of transport operators distributing transport products on

indispensable MDMS (ii) the number of agreements between MDMS and transport

operators, (iii) the number of sanctions imposed and (iv) increased consumer

satisfactions scores on travel information availability and bookability.

1.4. The proposal/initiative relates to:

☑ a new action

☐ a new action following a pilot project/preparatory action 37

☐ the extension of an existing action

37 As referred to in Article 58(2), point (a) or (b) of the Financial Regulation.

EN 29 EN

☐ a merger or redirection of one or more actions towards another/a new

action

1.5. Grounds for the proposal/initiative

1.5.1. Requirement(s) to be met in the short or long-term including a detailed timeline for

roll-out of the implementation of the initiative

Several measures are considered to improve transparency and establish a level

playing field for transport operators in terms of access and use of indispensable

MDMS:

(a) First the proposal includes measures that ensure fair treatment of information

and data on all MDMS. This is done by obliging MDMS to respect neutral

display (following display criteria) on their online interface. MDMS will also

be required to display information on greenhouse gas emissions, when that

information is shared by the transport operator, and to share data for mobility

management with public authorities.

(b) It also sets out key principles framing all commercial agreements between

indispensable MDMS and transport operators. These rules aim to protect

transport operators in their commercial agreements with indispensable

MDMS. A notification process at national and EU level is planned to identify

and designate B2C MDMS with significant market presence (indispensable

ones).

(c) Member States would be required to appoint a national authority to settle

disputes that could arise between parties and an EU enforcement network of

such authorities would ensure consistent enforcement across the EU.

1.5.2. Added value of EU involvement (it may result from different factors, e.g.

coordination gains, legal certainty, greater effectiveness or complementarities). For

the purposes of this section 'added value of EU involvement' is the value resulting

from EU action, that is additional to the value that would have been otherwise

created by Member States alone.

This initiative will enable end users and, in the case of B2B services, subscribers to

benefit from a greater choice of tickets, displayed in a fair and transparent way,

across transport operators and modes. This should in turn improve the functioning of

the internal market, through a smoother and more coherent booking experience for

passengers, and support the EU's objective of economic, social and territorial

cohesion. Action at EU level with horizontal rules would support a better functioning

of the online ticket distribution market, removing obstacles for operators and

MDMS. EU level action for B2B ticket distribution would continue to promote a

level playing field in the sector. The 2020 ex-post evaluation of the CRS Code of

Conduct concluded that the EU level is the right level for intervention in ticket

distribution, compared to national and international intervention. This is due to the

multinational nature of both CRS providers and aviation services. If regulated at the

national level, CRS providers would need to adapt to a multitude of regulatory

regimes with negative impacts on efficiency. In addition, the risk of “rule shopping”

would result in fragmentation of the EU single market. At the international level, the

International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) has adopted a non-binding CRS

Code of Conduct. However, the EU CRS Code of Conduct is binding, making it

more effective and adding value compared to the Member States adopting the ICAO

code.

EN 30 EN

1.5.3. Lessons learned from similar experiences in the past

Lessons can be drawn from the Code of Conduct on Computerised Reservation

Systems (CRS): Regulation 2299/8938 was adopted to ensure equal treatment of all

airlines whose flights were included in a CRS as to promote competition between

airlines in the indirect air ticket distribution sector. It introduced requirements for

results to be shown on an unbiased display that did not favour the CRS’s parent

carriers (or any other carriers) and to ensure that parent carriers did not favour their

own CRS over the others as well as to ensure that travel agents and finally consumers

have access to offers without bias. The CRS Code of Conduct was evaluated in 2020.

The evaluation concluded that the objectives of (i) ensuring a level playing field and

(ii) increasing transparency remain relevant. The evaluation showed that the Code

has not fully ensured a level playing field for all participating carriers, as regards

access to, and use of CRS services, since it did not lead to better balancing of the

bargaining power of different-sized air carriers vis-à-vis CRSs. However, the

evaluation concluded that the transparency requirements, in the form of the neutral

display, remain important, since travel agents, both offline and online, and travel

management companies still heavily rely on CRS data especially for business travel.

Finally, the evaluation concluded that while promoting rail and multimodal transport

remains important, this should be pursued through broader initiatives rather than

CRS-specific rules.

1.5.4. Compatibility with the multiannual financial framework and possible synergies with

other appropriate instruments

The proposal is consistent with other EU instruments and relevant EU policies. and

in particular:

Digital transport policies: The proposal complements the work done in the context of

the ITS Directive which establishes a framework for the deployment of Intelligent

Transport Systems in the road sector and its interfaces with other modes of transport.

Under the Delegated Regulation on multimodal travel information services

(MMTIS), Member States must establish national access points constituting a single

point of access for data users to the static, historic, observed and dynamic travel and

traffic data of different transport modes, for the purpose of providing multimodal

travel information services. Developing MDMS capable of reservations, bookings, or

ticketing however re-quires additional data (e.g. real-time fares).

Horizontal data policies: To complement the general principles of the Digital

Markets Act in relation to MDMS, sectorial measures are considered in the MDMS

proposal to enhance transparent consumer information for transport options. The

MDMS proposal is complementary to the Digital Services Act (DSA) provisions as it

also supports a safe, predictable, and trusted online environment. The Data Act (DA)

has synergies with the MDMS proposal, through harmonised rules on data sharing

including rules on Business to Government (B2G) data sharing and rules on unfair

contractual agreement terms.

Commercial practices policies: The Platform to Business (P2B) Regulation is

applicable to business-to-consumer (B2C) MDMS in the EU and imposes

transparency obligations on the parameters used for ranking. The revised Directive

38 Regulation (EC) No 2299/89 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 July 1989 on a code

of conduct for computerized reservation systems (OJ L 220, 29.7.1989, p.1, ELI:

http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/1989/2299/oj).

EN 31 EN

on Unfair Commercial Practices prohibits undisclosed advertising and paid

promotion for higher ranking of products within search results on MDMS. The

MDMS proposal complements these acts with measures that ensure that search

results on MDMS are displayed in a neutral way (setting out a list of mandatory

ranking criteria and indicating which criterion was used for display), prohibit self-

preferencing and paid prominence, allowing advertised content only under certain

conditions.

Other initiatives: The CountEmissionsEU and Flight Emission Label initiatives set

out a common framework to calculate and report transport-related greenhouse gas

emissions. Transparent information applied across modes will enable passengers to

choose the most sustainable options for their trips.

1.5.5. Assessment of the different available financing options, including scope for

redeployment

The recurrent adjustment costs for the European Commission are related to the

requirement for the European Commission to designate B2C MDMS with SMP at

EU-level. This is assumed to require 2 FTE per year from 2028 onwards.

1.6. Duration of the proposal/initiative and of its financial impact

☐ limited duration

☐ in effect from [DD.MM]YYYY to [DD.MM]YYYY

☐ financial impact from YYYY to YYYY for commitment appropriations

and from YYYY to YYYY for payment appropriations.

☑ unlimited duration

Implementation with a start-up period from YYYY to YYYY,

1.7. Method(s) of budget implementation planned39

☑ Direct management by the Commission

☑ by its departments, including by its staff in the Union delegations;

☐ by the executive agencies

☐ Shared management with the Member States

☐ Indirect management by entrusting budget implementation tasks to:

☐ third countries or the bodies they have designated;

2. MANAGEMENT MEASURES

2.1. Monitoring and reporting rules

The proposed measure is focused on policy action and monitoring and does not

foresee any revenue or expenditure management, only the recruitment of additional

human resources (2 FTE).

2.2. Management and control system(s)

2.2.1. Justification of the budget implementation method(s), the funding implementation

mechanism(s), the payment modalities and the control strategy proposed

The expenditure corresponding to these contracts will be managed in line with

corporate processes.

2.2.2. Information concerning the risks identified and the internal control system(s) set up

to mitigate them

The Commission applies thorough controls on the management of employment

contracts and DG MOVE abides by strict ethical standards. The legislative proposal

does not entail any revenue collection and does not require any additional control

mechanism.

2.2.3. Estimation and justification of the cost-effectiveness of the controls (ratio between

the control costs and the value of the related funds managed), and assessment of the

expected levels of risk of error (at payment & at closure)

The overall risk of errors is expected to be very low and is already covered by the

existing control environment. No automated controls are expected to be required.

2.3. Measures to prevent fraud and irregularities

The legislative proposal does not entail any revenue collection by DG MOVE.

Regarding the expenditures, they are foreseen for the hiring of additional human

EN 33 EN

resources. The risk of fraud and irregularities is considered very low and will be

covered by existing controls. DG MOVE revised its antifraud strategy in line with

OLAF guidelines in 2020 and plans for a subsequent update in 2026. The local

strategy includes relevant actions to ensure awareness raising on fraud prevention,

dedicated risk assessment actions and ensures an effective and efficient cooperation

with investigative bodies. The corporate framework ensures the right of access to

information, premises and staff to the external (European Court of Auditors) and

internal (IAS) auditors.

The additional work on implementing the Regulation, will require an internal redeployment of 2 establishment posts as

from the adoption of the Regulation.

The additional work relates to:

1) Designation of B2C MDMS with significant market presence (SMP) at EU level: The Regulation introduces a

requirement for the EC to designate B2C MDMS with SMP at EU level – this will require EC to deal with notifications

received from services providers, monitor developments and monitor the market to ensure that all relevant service providers

notify. EC might also need to deal with complaints/further investigations related to the designation process. Over time, EC

will need to monitor developments and manage the list of designated entities (with potential additions or removals from the

list).

2) Designation of B2C MDMS with significant market presence (SMP) at national level: this will be handled by national

enforcement authorities, however, EC must verify notifications from Member States, coordinate with national enforcement

bodies, publish and update dynamic lists on EC website, all while ensuring compliance with strict deadlines. The multi-

layered notification and designation processes at both EU and national levels, requiring real-time oversight.

The recurrent burden of assessing notification received, monitoring the EU MDMS market and potentially processing

removal requests demands dedicated capacity. Two FTE are therefore foreseen to streamline coordination, reduce delays in

designations, and maintain an accurate, up-to-date public register, ensuring market transparency and effective enforcement

under the new regulatory framework. Given the required very specialised knowledge and the combination of competences

(specialised competition background combined with legal drafting skills), the needs could be fulfilled by 2 AD post.

The conditions for commercial agreements between transport operators and B2C MDMS providers with significant market presence or

B2B MDMS providers from Article 5 and Article 6 are mitigating the abuse of contractual imbalances, in line with the DMA.

Alignment with the once-only principle

Any B2C MDMS provider vertically integrated with a railway undertaking designated as having significant railway market presence

pursuant to the proposal on rail ticketing shall be designated as a B2C MDMS provider with significant railway market presence at

national level and shall not be required to notify the national enforcement body referred to in Article 13 of the Member State in which

the railway undertaking is designated as having significant railway market presence.

For the purposes of assessing whether the thresholds laid down in Annex I are met, the designating authority may request B2C MDMS

providers to submit all relevant information within a reasonable timeframe, and at the latest within two months. An already designated

B2C MDMS provider with significant market presence shall not be subject to such information requests for the transport mode in which

it has been designated. B2C MDMS providers which do not submit within the set timeframe the requested information on their

significant market presence, may be designated without undue delay, based on information available to the designating authority.

Explain how newly created data is findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable, and meets high-quality standards

The proposal is coordinated with the proposal on rail

ticketing and the proposed revision of the Rail Passenger

Rights Regulation, to create a consistent framework that

promotes rail single tickets and an ensures good

functioning of the online ticketing market. The proposal

repeals Regulation (EC) No 80/2009 on a Code of

Conduct for Computerised Reservation Systems (‘CRS

Code of Conduct’), whilst updating and integrating the

provisions of that text that remain relevant. The proposal

acts in synergy with other of EU legislation affecting

digital information services, and in particular the ITS

Directive which establishes a framework for the

deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems in the road

sector and its interfaces with other modes of transport.

Under the Delegated Regulation on multimodal travel

information services (MMTIS) Member States must

establish national access points constituting a single point

of access for data users to the static, historic, observed and

dynamic travel and traffic data of different transport

modes, for the purpose of providing multimodal travel

information services. Addressing the barriers for the

development of MDMS capable of reservations, bookings,

or ticketing therefore complements this existing set of

legislation. Further, this proposal will complement the

general principles of the Digital Markets Act and the Data

Act by setting sectorial measures in relation to MDMS.

The proposal will also complement the revised Directive

on Unfair Commercial Practices with measures that ensure

that search results on MDMS are displayed in a neutral

way (setting out a list of mandatory ranking criteria and

indicating which criterion was used for display), prohibit

self-preferencing and paid prominence, allowing

advertised content only under certain conditions.

This proposal aims to promote a more multimodal and

sustainable transport system and contribute to the

objectives of the European Green Deal. By requiring that

EN 66 EN

MDMS display information on greenhouse gas emissions

and CO2 emissions, this proposal will also contribute to

the objectives of the CountEmissionsEU and Flight

Emission Label initiatives, setting out a common

framework to calculate and report transport-related

greenhouse gas emissions.
