Are there any MSE users who were on flight LS633 from East Midlands to Tenerife on 14/09/13?
This flight was delayed for 6 hours due to what was described as a technical fault with one of the aircraft not closing properly. I will not go into all the ins and outs with regard to everything that occurred.
Sent off a letter requesting compensation from Jet2 for myself and my partner. Received a reply saying "Following our investigation into the delay to your flight, we consider that the delay was caused by an unexpected flight safety shortcoming, which constitutes an extraordinary circumstance." Further down in the letter Jet2 say "on this occasion, the flight safety shortcoming was related to a technical fault."
I was also told by Jet2 that I could not make a claim on behalf my partner as she has to make an individual claim herself.
Can anyone advise me if a technical fault can be seen to constitute an extraordinary circumstance please, also if it is correct that my partner has to make her own individual claim and I cannot make a joint claim even though we are traveling together?
I was of the understanding that a technical fault normally occurs as a result of lack of care or maintenance, is this correct.
Thank to anyone who is able to advise me.

1.Tech faults have now been deemed NOT extraordinary circumstances.
2. If you are claiming for more than one person you need to fill in form N1 (and not MCOL, the online claim) and post it.
3. Yes you definately need to read vaubans guide.
4. Don't let Jet2 fob you off for too long because after september they will say you cant sue because its more than 2 years.

thanks for that. case due to be heard 24th march, jet2's main defence was claim over 2 years ago and a knock on affect for the last flight having to land at Manchester instead of leeds the previous day due to bad weather. original flight was in September 2008. case has been stayed twice previously.

Knock-on is not a valid defence. It would be good if you could feed back to us how they defend the two-year limitation. Thanks

Jet2 have amused me by refusing compensation on the basis that Huzar considers that breakdowns are nothing to do with them because that is the responsibility of a third party! Has anyone heard that one before?

Hi,

Yes this one rears it's head occasionally, just one of many from them. What you must remember is that Jet2 are the 'Carlsberg' of compensation dodgers.... probably!

Of course the 261/2004 regs state that you claim from Jet2 and Jet2 are then entitled to re claim from the third party..... if that is what actually happened. It's not an excuse for them to avoid paying compensation.

Good luck.

They are arguing with me that Huzar v j2 does not deal with technical faults but specifically wear and tear. And that my flight was delayed by a technical fault, not wear and tear so it doesn't count.

I can see any judge worth his salt :rotfl:them out of court if they tried that one!
