All that happened yesterday was the announcement of a set of proposed measures that will be debated, and voted on, in Parliament on Wednesday.
Clearly some of the devilish detail is still being worked on, so it's to be expected that a number of aspects aren't entirely clear yet. Judges will be the ones who interpret the law or throw it out. I do hope all these new laws have sunset clauses. |
The Govester on live TV has confirmed there will be in place a passenger ban regarding international travel apart from travelling for work.

If a Govt refuses to allow you operate flights then said Govt cannot insist you pay compensation because of its actions. They can try it on but ultimately it will fail in court.

What new lockdown rules mean for holidays as EasyJet prepares to cancel flights
EasyJet chief executive Johan Lundgren said: “Following the Government’s sudden announcement today, easyJet will operate its planned schedule until Thursday and will be reviewing its flying programme over the lockdown period. It is likely that much of the UK touching schedule will be cancelled during lockdown with our planned flying set to resume in early December. We will advise customers who are booked to travel over the next month of their options with a view to assisting customers to return to the country in the coming days." |

I went back and read the guidance from the EU and it is my view that it is an extraordinary circumstance even if the borders are still open because it is a mass restriction on people travelling. Therefore airlines will be able to cancel or amend their schedules without having to pay compensation. However they will still have to refund for cancelled flights.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-54776678 So how can this be right that HMG says you cannot fly unless for business, yet RyanAir expect you to fly if their planes are operating. Will they really fly empty planes just so that they can keep passengers' money? OK I know we are talking about RyanAir here, but even so...... (and I have the misfortune to have Gove as my local MP) |
Ryanair are actually encouraging the public to ignore the English lockdown, which they have never believed in.
|
Errrr...Re Ryanair that is actually not true of course...

I will say it again, the restriction is on the passenger, it is not on the airline. An airline is entitled to keep flying for those passengers who are not restricted. If the passenger is under restriction, Ryanair is encouraging passengers to transfer to another flight for free.
It will interesting to see whether this results in mass civil disobedience and what the Government response will be. |
Very good precis.
|
Actually I don’t have much sympathy with passengers. They should have learned their lesson by now but clearly many haven’t.

I have two very good friends who have changed their Friday BOH - TFS flights to Wednesday LTN - TFS to stay within the 'recommended' travel guidelines. Yes, they have learnt....get out and enjoy life in a relatively safer place where the pool water is warmer.
