With reference to international scheduled boats, in cases within 24 hours of departure the journey or during the journey, with any kind of obstacle (breakdown of boat, vis major, hereinafter referred to as: travel obstacle), the hydrofoil company is obliged to ensure at its own cost, that the passenger reaches the destination, possibly by utilising other types of vehicle or transport.

When utilising substitute transport, the hydrofoil company does not charge extra fare, however does not refund fare either. The passenger is not obliged to accept the arrangement of alternative transport and can be released from the contract, the hydrofoil company being obliged to refund the paid fare for the ticket.

In so far as the vis major nature does not make it possible for the hydrofoil company to fulfill their transport obligation even by the utilisation of other types of vehicle transport, they are relieved of this obligation and are obliged to refund the fare without any deduction.

If passenger transport is influenced by or fails to take place as a result of a vis major (war, epidemic, terrorist act, strike, or unavoidable natural phenomena, e.g. low or high water-level, technical obstacles, e.g. embargo), for the routes effected and for the failure to complete the passenger transport contract, the hydrofoil company is not responsible, however the price of the already paid tickets will be refunded.
