German tourist wins near €1,000 payout after sunrise sunbed dash ruins Kos holiday

TL;DR Summary
A German holidaymaker won about €986.70 in compensation after arguing that towels reserved on sun loungers before sunrise made poolside use impossible during a Kos holiday. A Hanover district court ruled the package holiday was defective and that the tour operator should have ensured a reasonable number of sun loungers, potentially holding operators accountable for towel-reservation practices and pressuring resorts to tighten policies on sunbeds.
