Sure, and can I sue Lufthansa when their plane is late or flight is cancelled? The airline has all the power to enforce an extremely one sided contract where they don’t have to perform. Including near monopoly control of many routes.
- detaro 8y agoyou probably don't even have to sue them, they'll probably pay out the legally & contractually defined compensation if you just ask. If they don't, then yes, you can sue them.
- WillPostForFood 8y agothe legally & contractually defined compensation So nothing. My only option is to choose a different airline, except it is very difficult since I only have one choice unless I fly 1000 miles out of the way the next monopolized hub city where I still have no power. Airlines have almost all the leverage, so they can delay my flight, taking an hour, 10 hours, or a day of my time and there is no compensation. At 40 of the 100 largest U.S. airports, a single airline controls a majority of the market, as measured by the number of seats for sale, up from 34 airports a decade earlier. At 93 of the top 100, one or two airlines control a majority of the seats, an increase from 78 airports, according to AP’s analysis of data from Diio, an airline-schedule tracking service. https://www.denverpost.com/2015/07/17/airline-consolidation-has-created-airport-monopolies-increased-fares/ https://www.denverpost.com/2015/07/17/airline-consolidation-...
