If members read this thread from page 1 like I did, it answers most first time questions, and avoids unnecessary forum repetition.

I for one took that advice as a Newbie and have read the forum from the beginning. Some very interesting information on here, I was particularly interested in the regular contributors but there doesn't seem to be many stories of success! JPears seemed to be very knowledgeable on the subject until I got to the part where he lost so I think some of the advice needs to be taken with a big pinch of salt.

I just do not have the time in my life that you guys seems to have to spend on this, I also cannot see a court dismissing the NEB list seeing as it has been put together by the enforcement bodies so in the words of Duncan Bannatyne i'm out.

For the record, JPears has been of immeasurable help to many of us on this forum. The fact he lost is in no way a poor reflection of his extensive knowledge and advice. Like a few other unlucky ones, the decision just didn't go his way on the day.

And unlike many on here who just pop in for a quick answer, then win their case and disappear without passing on their knowledge and experience onto others, he has stuck around to help out.

Your post is very unfair and only serves to show your limited knowledge of this forum.

Taking on board Centipede's comments anyone thinking of walking away (such as Pie In The Sky) should seriously think about using a no win no fee firm rather than walking away. Until the airlines sort out their delay problems compensation claims will continue so by claiming you may well put pressure on those airlines to improve. If you think it morally wrong to claim then give your award to charity.

I won't take that personally, small claims is hit and miss by its very nature. Nobody here purports to be an expert in this matter and would be foolish to do so. Yes I lost but not for lack of trying or doing all the work that is required for a court case. Jet2 are putting up stubborn resistance as they are entitled to do.

We flew out to Malaga and returned 12 days later in July/Aug this year and both flights were delayed over 4 hours. Jet2 are stating that they used a chartered flight and it was delayed due to a Hydraulic Pump fault and therefore aren't responsible and we aren't entitled to compensation apart from the small amount of refreshments they provided? They don't say anything about the return flight? I am sorry for my lack of understanding and hope im not sounding like a 2 year old trying to explain here
I have filled out the CAA form and am waiting there response. I have had numerous letters from Jet2 and all stating that they aren't interested in giving us any kind of compensation but apologise a lot.
Thank you in advance for any help.

pottyteddy - CAA a waste of time - you need to ask Jet2 whose plane took you out and keep pursuing the return leg - might mean Court action.

I was delayed seven hours on a Jet2 flight returning to Leeds/Bradford on 25th September. I have a copy of an email given out in Paphos airport to people on that flight stating that the flight was delayed for 'operational reasons'. The plane landed from Leeds/Bradford but I understand that something was broken and as they didn't have a spare part they flew a plane out from Manchester to collect us hence the delay.

Do you think I am entitled to compensation? I do not have my boarding pass but I have luggage tags which would confirm I was on the flight and the email relating to the delay.

If you don't have the time to take action yourself, you could instruct a no win no fee lawyer. If it's just you simply prefer not to spend your time taking action, that's a perfectly reasonable thing to do but there is, as the economists say, an "opportunity cost". If yours is a medium haul flight for you alone, the amount at stake is Euro 400, so if you spend 20 hours that is Euro 20 per hour (tax-free).

People are receiving compensation as almost daily reports on here show. Courts should look at the evidence and law before them and certainly not give undue weight to any NEB pronouncements (for which, in any event, eloquent rebuttals have been provided by certain prolific posters on the forum).

We were delayed 7 hours on a Jet2 flight from Paphos to Leeds/Bradford on 25th September. The plane landed at Paphos airport but after waiting in a 'pen' for over an hour waiting to board we were told to go back to the departure lounge. We were later given a copy of an email stating that there were 'operational problems' with the plane and a replacement aircraft was being sent from Manchester and the delay would be about 7 hours, which it was.

Another passenger stated he had been told the reason for the delay was that something had broken on the plane and they didn't have a spare part.

Do you think we will be able to claim compensation? We don't have our boarding passes but have our luggage tags from Swissport, flight voucher (not tickets as these were not issued) and the email received from Jet2 regarding the delay and our options.
