    The plaintiff entered into a tourism services contract with the defendant UAB Novaturas through a third party UAB Santagna, according to which the plaintiff's family of four persons would go to a Turkish resort for seven nights for EUR 1,525.89. The plaintiff paid the cost of the trip. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, all the trips were cancelled and the plaintiff’s trip to Turkey did not take place. The plaintiff sent an email to the defendant and a third party and demanded a refund of the money paid for the trip, but the money paid was not refunded. The plaintiff filed a lawsuit against defendant. The first instance court upheld the plaintiff’s action and ordered the defendant to refund the money no later than 90 days from the date on which the restrictions which made it impossible to perform the tourism services agreement were lifted.

The defendant was required to perform the contract and to refund money paid for the trip within 14 days of the termination of the contract.
