And after three threads people still don't get that it clearly states in the T&Cs accepted at booking that you must print your own boarding pass.0

What you don't seem to get is that the contractual term itself is illegal.
The judge ruled that the obligation to provide a boarding pass lays with the airline - regardless of what the T&Cs claim.0 -

Is it? You do realise you are not in Spain, and whatever a court of first instance judge says has no influence on the UK.Gone ... or have I?0 -
In other news an interveiw at the playground revealed Ryanair is also considering taking the bat and ball home.Mixed Martial Arts is the greatest sport known to mankind and anyone who says it is 'a bar room brawl' has never trained in it and has no idea what they are talking about.0

Did I say Spanish case law has UK jurisdiction?
But as you mention it, it may well do if it was contested in the UK as the case was brought under sec 4.2 of the same European Directive that gave rise to UTCCR in the UK and which is harmonised with Spanish consumer law.
That it is a first instance judgment and somehow not binding is meaningless unless it's successfully appealed.0 -
Has there ever been a nastier company than Ryan Air?????0

So how can you claim that it is illegal, when a UK court has not ruled on the issue?Gone ... or have I?0 -

er any airline that feels they are above EU laws/Regulations and the Montreal Convention gets my not nice vote, I wouldn't say nasty though.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0 -
