Ryanair has lost its appeal against an order to pay compensation to passengers affected when its pilots went on strike in 2018, in Civil Aviation Authority v Ryanair [2022] EWCA Civ 76
Ryanair had argued its delayed and cancelled flights were ‘extraordinary circumstances’. In a statement issued after the Court of Appeal decision, Paul Smith, director, UK Civil Aviation Authority, said: ‘We would like to advise consumers that Ryanair may seek to appeal this judgement to the Supreme Court. Affected customers should therefore await further information before pursuing their claims.’
