Flight delay compensation, all other EU airlines

Thanks for the reply JPears.....i know it definately wasnt a weather complaint.

I have read the FAO and lots of the court rulings, I still need help please.

Birmingham to Bangkok via Dubai
Delayed at Birmingham by 2.5 hours, meant we reached Bangkok a day late.

I've written to Emirates, there reply is that delay from UK to Dubai was less than 3 hours, so delay getting to Bangkok is irrelevant, ruling does not apply etc.

The court rulings (EG Folkerts) about final destination seem to apply to flights where delay is caused in the EU

EG London via Portugal to Brazil

Can anyone point me in the direction of court rulings on
UK Via non EU destination to Final destination.

I thought i had a claim, but not sure now. This should be included in the guide, but no mention is made about this specific situation.
Delay in UK of less than 3 hours, leads to arriving at final destination 3hours+ late, but flight goes via non EU country.

Please help.

Sorry for the ramble!

What's my next step????

assuming you claimed before last Friday when the Huzar case was rejected meaning that the airlines cannot claim "extraordinary circumstances" for technical problems....write again with a NBA...details in the FAQs

NBA means Notice before Action
The last letter before taking them to court

For info, this is Wizzair's current position;

I regret to inform you that we are still unable to pay the requested compensation."[/FONT]
