HI kalash, well done and congratulations.
I did wonder if you had got any further.
DId you have to go back to Emirates or did they contact you, as they promised in their press release on the Gahan/ Blakely case?
I had a small claims case open, via MCOL. They were keen to wrap this up after the supreme court Permission to appeal was denied.
for them it was a damage limitation and cost saving exercise.. DLA Piper was literally begging me to lodge a notice of discontinuation n279 to the court. I said only when the money is in the bank and you pay my legal costs.0 -

I'm about to launch a similar claim against Emirates, but conscious I'm near the five year limit. How long prior would I have to raise a MCOL to ensure it met the deadline?0

I would have been out of time by the time I lodged anything but Emirates paid up anyway with only a little prompting. This was a catering vehicle hitting the plane causing damage.0 -
There is a new ECJ ruling on missed connections outside the EU.
