New legal situation for package travelers: What the Wiesbaden ruling means for Mallorca visitors

Answer

Is the situation different if I still travel to Mallorca and later ask for a price reduction?

Yes. If you accept the replacement flight and still take the holiday, later claims for a reduced package price can be handled differently. In that situation, airline compensation may be set off against the reduction you claim from the tour operator. The Wiesbaden ruling was about travellers who did not start the holiday at all.
