Over 900 downloads now ... so someone must be reading it (though it doesn't always feel like that!).

You do wonder who though....

One of the problems for airlines in continuing to oppose the implementation of 261/04 is that each legal challenge generates media headlines. Using the programme "Orangedox" I can see how many people download the guide each day, for example. Before the Supreme Court's decision, it was an average about 6 or 7. In the fortnight following the decision, it was about 30.

It's not the numbers themselves that matter so much, but rather the difference between them: more people are becoming aware of the Regulation, and that's a real problem for the airlines.

Again, I offer my sincere thanks to the Board of Jet2.com without whom none of this would be possible. I wonder if we should ask them to be the official forum sponsors?

I wonder how long it'll be before you go the way of Centipede100 and Blondmark (gagged or bribed)? I just hope the airlines don't 'get to you'!

Well if anybody is going to bribe anybody else please can I be first in the queue, I might not have a clue what I'm talking about but definitely open to bribery!

I think it's easy to speculate why members decide not to post, I had at least a six month gap while my case was stayed by the courts, but now I'm back, other members might or might not return I guess it's up to them ;-)

I believe Blondmark received a 'very generous settlement' (I am paraphrasing there, cannot remember the exact words he used) on condition that he removed his posts.

I don't know why Centipede100 stopped though.
