NU.nl15 September · 14:341 week ago

Dutch Railways (NS) announced that train passengers who experienced delays on Tuesday due to major rail disruptions can receive refunds. This is an exception, as sabotage typically falls under force majeure, usually excluding compensation. Normally, passengers do not get money back in such cases. The decision allows travelers to claim reimbursement despite the circumstances surrounding the infrastructure failure, marking a significant policy shift for affected commuters during this period of widespread transport issues.
