The plaintiff first held that the changes made by the defendant on its website, in order to already address the consumers' concerns, did not address all of these concerns.
The plaintiff ruled that the failure to provide, from the outset, consumers with information on the final price to be paid for the cruise holiday, breached the prohibition on unfair commercial practices. In particular, the plaintiff considered that the lack of information on the obligation to pay additional charges, whose amount was foreseeable from the outset, induced a false representation of the actual price of the service offered to the average consumer.
It also held that the incompleteness of the information about the consumers' rights and some services breached the prohibition on unfair commercial practices.
According to the plaintiff, the conduct of the defendant constituted an unfair commercial practice.
