Brussels \u2013\u00a0There is no right to lump-sum compensation in the case of failure to show up for boarding<\/strong> a flight that arrived with an extended delay, nor when the purchase of a ticket on an alternative flight made it possible to arrive at one’s destination less than three hours late<\/strong>. The Court of Justice of the EU is back on air transport and passenger rights, adding another piece of case law in matter. <\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As a point of law, the Luxembourg courts recall that the air passenger rights regulation<\/a> aims to remedy the difficulties and “serious inconveniences” suffered by passengers in connection with a flight. However, such inconveniences, possibly resulting from the fact that a passenger had to find an alternative flight on their own, cannot be considered “serious” and therefore reimbursement is not triggered.<\/p>\n

As for the case of missed boarding, the Court starts from a preliminary consideration. The right it recognizes to refund for a delay of at least three hours is linked to the fact that it “takes the form of an irreversible loss of time<\/strong>.” For the Court of Justice of the EU, a passenger who did not go to the airport did not, in all likelihood, suffer such a loss of time. For this reason, reimbursement by the airline is not triggered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
