What's the position with connecting flights?
I booked through Air France to go to St Maarten from London. The journey involved a connecting flight from Heathrow to Paris and vice versa on the return journey.

Flight Delay Compensation Iberia/American Airlines
I recently took a flight to Tampa from Manchester. It was booked through Iberia and the flight numbers were Iberia, but the actual airline was American Airlines.

Compensation - French Air Traffic Control - Why NOT??
An agenda that seems to be continually overlooked, year after year. Cannot believe my UNLUCK, when it comes to flight delays.

CAA told me to go back to Airline after sitting on claim for nearly a year
I claimed from Cubana Airlines for a delay, they 'opened' but ignored all e-mails. I took my claim to the CAA who I had to constantly chase. They sat on it for nearly a year and when I chased again I was finally told all claimants had already been told to go back to the Airline direct as this was not something they could…

Flight delay 2009 - worth claiming?

Unfortunately, due to mechanical fault our plane was delayed from Heathrow, so we left 135 mins late (according to stats),…
