Questions referred

Must the first sentence of Article 12(2) of Directive (EU) 2015/2302 (1) 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 (‘the Package Travel Directive’) be interpreted as providing for a further right of termination — in addition to that provided for in Article 12(1) of that directive — the legal consequences of which apply only if the traveller invokes that right in his or her declaration of termination?

Must Article 12(2) of the Package Travel Directive be interpreted as meaning that an obligation to pay a termination fee does not cease to apply where the traveller does not state a reason in his or her declaration of termination of the package travel contract or states a reason which is not related to an unavoidable and extraordinary circumstance?
