I have read Vauban and it does not cover my query. Neither does Martins' articles on the subject, so am in desperate need of guidance.
Flight from Dalaman (Turkey) 2.7.16 scheduled departure 13.40/arrival approx. 16.00 in Manchester. Aircraft went technical but was fixed only to find crew out of hours. Given options by Monarch:
1. Stay overnight and arrive Manchester some 24 hours late on 3.7.16
2. Accept transfer to Monarch flight to Birmingham and bus to Manchester, arriving Manchester approx. 3.00am 3.7.16, some 11 hours later than scheduled arrival of original flight.
Chose 2nd option but application to Monarch for compensation denied claiming they provided transfer free of charge out of goodness of their heart and that under normal circumstances we would have had to offload ourselves off the flight and receive a refund and book alternative arrangements. They said that because of the restrictive nature of prices in doing this they offered this alternative foc.
If we had taken option 1 it has been confirmed that we would be entitled to compensation under 261/2004.
Is this a smokescreen or do they have a point?
Your advice would be greatly appreciated.0 -
