Passengers who travel by ferry will now enjoy the same rights as those who travel by air or rail.

The Transport Minister Leo Varadkar has announced that from December 18, the National Transport Authority will assume responsibilities for enforcing passenger rights in the maritime sector.

The new rights are designed to protect against discrimination and ensure equality of access to maritime passenger services.
