As said a person before, regardless the price (which is a very bad argument), a storm is a force majeure, so no obligation to refund, that's it

False, even when there is a force majeure there is the obligation from the airline the reimburse the ticket + assistance. See my previous post, and see ...

Hello,

As a last year law student, I made some research on this topic.

- First of all bad weather is indeed considered as extraordinary circonstances by a large part of the doctrine. You don't need to have a thunderstorm. When the plane cannot land/take off because of weather, even if it is for an ...

Some little news :

- The launch of the BRU ALC route has been suspended for operational reasons. Don't know the exact details.

- Vueling is reporting a bigger loss than expected and is forced to reduce their expectations. See : http://today.reuters.com/investing/financeArticle.aspx?type ...

Ryanair is not obliged to offer any assistance when there is exeptional circonstances. The EU regulation exlude any obligation from the carrier in such case.

Same thing apply when there is strike : it is an exeptional circonstances and carrier are waived from any obligation.

When a flight is cancelled for extraordinary circunstances the obligation of the carrier is waived. See 'considerant" 14 of the European rule :

"(14) As under the Montreal Convention, obligations on operating air carriers should be limited or excluded in cases where an event has been caused by ...

A fine is related to the penal aspect. Obviously, eating in a plane is not forbidden by any law, and cannot be subject of a fine.

However, the forbiden of food in the Skybus plane is a contractual obligation wich both skybus and the custumer (when he purchase the ticket) agree. Therefore ...

Things that I noticed with FR:

- Booking too much in advance might not be optimal. When I booked a flight six month in advance at a reasonable price, often i see a lower price afterwards when I recheck for a quote.

- Their cheapest fares can be found on route where there is a high frequency ...

Well, it is not only in their shedule that CDH BIO is missing.
If you look at their destinations page, they removed the cdg bio from their flash animation.

I was also at CRL that day for a flight to VLC wich was cancelled.
Well, for this time we cannot say anything against ryanair. Three flights in the end of the morning has been cancelled (Prestwick, Nimes and Valencia). These three planes landed in Liege.

I'm more angry against the managment of CRL ...

According to Tourmag.com a new Belgian charter airline is in creation.
The web magazine say that there is a lack of charter airline when the two major operator (FQ and TUB) need extra capacity. When they need such capacity, they are obliged to ask foreign carrier wich upset some passengers.

The ohter crash were charter, not LCC. Big difference

Yes, I also agree to Waldova about the interior of the planes.

I remember last year I had a flight with TV, I was seated near the emergency exit. There was some adhesive tape on the emergency door to block something.
Even if this fact had no security implication it does not give a good image to the ...

Yes indeed.
Hope their price will go down because at the moment it does not seems to be a LCC :

Prix du billet d'avion/Adulte
€ 249,00 EUR

Taxes/Adulte (Détails)
42,36 EUR

Sous-total/Adulte
291,36 EUR

Only for a one way segment ... ouch

Well at the moment it is quite a good idea as the Eastern French TGV is not completed. So going from Reims to Bordeaux, Marseille or Nice can take from 6 to 10 hours with the normal train.

Indeed, in the future, their biggest challenge will be to compete with the TGV who will pass near Reims. The ...

Well, I think is fair enogh to say that the expansion of Zaventem was a stupid political desision.
In the past when desisions about investment at Zaventem have been at the table, the politicians should see that this airport will be a problem in the future regarding its geographic position near ...
