Ryanair wins German flight cancellation case
06.10.08
Ryanair has welcomed a decision by the Simmern Court in Germany to dismiss a passenger's compensation claim after the budget airline cancelled a flight due to weather conditions in Jerez, Spain, in October last year.
The passenger, who was seeking compensation of over €1,600 as a result of this forced cancellation, had his claim dismissed by the court after it found that bad weather prevented Ryanair from landing safely and represented extraordinary circumstances that are beyond the control of the airline under EU261 regulations.
The passenger must now settle all costs associated with the case, including Ryanair’s costs.
