But to say he got "nothing of the sort" isn't remotely true.

What he actually got was something of the sort. Maybe not what precisely was advertised, but hardly a massive difference either.

I wonder how much he’s suing for? If it’s for the entire cost of the holiday I guess he’ll have to prove that he specifically booked that particular package just because he thought a glass of champagne was thrown in. Good luck with that……

I suppose in an ideal world he ought to be awarded the difference in cost between a glass of champagne and a glass of sparkling wine, but be made to bear his own legal costs.
