The CAA will take about four months to respond to your query, and then say that the airlines were not at fault. I think my advice is better.

I've answered on the other thread: but for completeness, NBA letter to Thomson, quoting preamble para 7 to the Regulation, and then (inevitably, I fear) court action thereafter.0 -

So basically there is a law inplace to compensate delayed passangers but either Thomson or Monarch are breaking it by not compensating passangers .... yes it is outrageous that they can flout the law in such away.0 -
And I'm still non the wiser who is actually liable :-l0

Exactly what I was thinking.
It would be good if one of these cases could get before a judge, so that a ruling can be referred to.
There's an option to take a court route where you apply for 'directions' from a judge first, a directions hearing will come up much quicker than a defended case.
Maybe Blondmark will have some clarity to add to this.0 -
