Someone at CAA is attempting to make a name for themselves.
I'm getting a letter sent off of complaint off to a couple of airlines tommorow and cc'ing the CAA demanding full compensation be enforced for when airlines refused to do what they are now trying to force Ryanair to do because clearly I am owed money.
The Ryanair letter being in the public domain is very handy for me since it can be used against both the airlines and the CAA if the former doesn't want to pay up or the later doesn't force them to, needless to say I've quoted their words in my complaints.
I will let people know how I get on but I doubt it will be anytime soon.
