Article 8
                 Right to reimbursement or re-routing

     1.  Where  reference is made to this Article, passengers shall be
offered the choice between:
     (a)  - reimbursement within seven days, by the means provided for
in Article 7 (3), of the full cost of the ticket at the price at which
it  was bought, for the part or parts of the journey not made, and for
the  part or parts already made if the flight is no longer serving any
purpose  in relation to the passenger`s original travel plan, together
with, when relevant,
     - a  return  flight  to  the  first  point  of  departure, at the
earliest opportunity;
     (b)  re-routing,  under comparable transport conditions, to their
final destination at the earliest opportunity; or
     (c)  re-routing,  under comparable transport conditions, to their
final  destination  at  a  later  date at the passenger`s convenience,
subject to availability of seats.
     2.  Paragraph  1(a)  shall also apply to passengers whose flights
form  part  of  a package, except for the right to reimbursement where
such right arises under Directive 90/314/EEC.
     3.  When,  in  the case where a town, city or region is served by
several airports, an operating air carrier offers a passenger a flight
to  an airport alternative to that for which the booking was made, the
operating  air  carrier  shall  bear  the  cost  of  transferring  the
passenger  from  that alternative airport either to that for which the
booking  was  made, or to another close-by destination agreed with the
passenger.
