accommodation will not be alien to the Armenian air passengers
henceforth, in case of flights delay, the Head of the Central

the bill "On Aviation", adopted by RA Parliament.

passenger receives a food. In case of a 4-hour delay, the passenger
is provided with communication (telephone, Internet and other postal
services). If the flight is delayed for 8 hours, the passenger is
provided with hotel. He also added that the new bill also fixes the
provisions on compulsory insurance of cargo and luggage and in case
of their loss – a compensation receipt.

necessity of bringing the Armenian legislation to conformity with
the requirements of the International Civil Aviation Organization
