Operative part of the judgment

Article 3(6) of Directive (EU) 2015/2302 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015 on package travel and linked travel arrangements, amending Regulation (EC) No 2006/2004 and Directive 2011/83/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council and repealing Council Directive 90/314/EEC
must be interpreted as meaning that a legal person such as a non-profit association, which has concluded a package travel contract with an organiser, in its own name but on behalf of some of its members, falls within the concept of ‘traveller’ within the meaning of that provision.

Operative part of the judgment

The second subparagraph of Article 19(1) TEU, read in the light of Article 2 TEU and point 5 of the Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers, adopted at the meeting of the European Council held in Strasbourg on 9 December 1989,
must be interpreted as meaning that the principle of judicial independence does not preclude national legislation which, by providing solely for the grant of a compensatory rest period in respect of the working time which a judge performs in order to carry out tasks which fall to a vacant post at his or her court, in addition to those required of him or her in respect of the post which he or she occupies, excludes any financial compensation for work performed with a view to carrying out those additional tasks, provided that that judge can actually use the compensatory rest period which he or she has been granted and that that legislation does not have the effect of undermining the commensurate relationship between his or her remuneration and the importance of his or her functions.
