The situation in April was that more court cases would most likely ensue from the airlines - particularly as the threat of compensation was considered an unfair advantage to unions in disputes.

Has there been any further court test cases? Did Air France and BA have to subsequently pay out where they had previously not. I can't see Ryanair paying compensation if neither Air France nor BA did.
