your ticket was a contract contracts can have clauses that, say, require you to file cases in specific courts convenient for the other party. i would suspect that a company such as an airline that regularly deals with vast numbers of customers has thought to add one. so you should read it. if i were lufthansa, i would have picked berlin. or, maybe, south dakota. who knows, but I would have picked somewhere. the reality is (a) you are disputing a small enough amount of money that it is not cost-effective to hire a lawyer; (b) lufthansa has every interest in smacking down efforts by individual customers to file in small claims court and will do so, even if it's not cost-effective for them; (c) you have, almost certainly, agreed to a contract (your ticket and/or agreements agreed to while buying it) that will require you to litigate it somewhere that is not helpful to you, likely in ways not helpful to you, that would make it not cost-effective to litigate even if you had a slam-dunk case; and (d) based on your own descriptions of what happened my instinct (and, likely, any judge's instinct) would be you don't have a case.

If Lufthansa wrongfully and tortuously (tortiously!!!) leaves early and I miss the flight and therefore miss being home to answer a call from Who Wants to Be millionaire telling me I was going to be a contestant can I sue Lufthansa for the money I would have won on Who wants to be a Millionaire ?? How much would the damages be ? The full amount I could have won or the average amount contestants have won over the past 5 years?

I have some sympathy to the dude who, on their very first international travel experience, had their ticket sold out from under them an hour before departure. That sucks rear end, even if it was within what Lufthansa says is their right to do within that contract. Dude, I'm sorry that happened to you. In my experience, some airlines differ in how much they're willing to accommodate and flex for passengers, above and beyond their contractual duties. It likely also varies from one country to another, and a lot is up to the discretion of the agent at the desk that you talk to as well. In the end, though, the airline has a highly paid legal department and you are completely 100% hosed irrespective of your actual legal rights or whether you really ought to prevail under the governing laws, whatever those might be. We do not actually live in a world where the little guy can get his due when the big guy steals a thousand dollars from him. My best non-lawyer advice is that you should leave them a scathing review on some online site, swallow your financial loss, and show up to an international flight at least two hours before departure from now on.

Gaunab posted:No need to be a dick about it first of all. Second of all that post was made immediately in E/N after they denied me boarding and i got off the line with customer service who told me the tickets, so I wasn't in the best place mentally dickweasel. I'm going to regret replying to this in good faith, but: Did you miss a connection on a flight on the same ticket or were you just late to the airport (this includes booking two tickets)? If the former, you have a case and EU laws actually have a ton of protections that won't need a small claim case. If its the latter, you're hosed. US airlines tend to have an unwritten flat tire rule, where if you're 2 hours or so late, they will often put you on the next flight, however this isn't required. Non-US airlines don't do this.

I'm looking at PACER costs and this poo poo is straight up draconian. Charging per page delivered is some print era poo poo, but whatever I guess. This however is completely hosed: "PACER Search Results – Anytime a search is performed you are charged a fee based on the number of pages generated in the search, even if the search displays “no matches found.” There is no maximum fee for these searches."

Hypothetically, what are one's options when dealing with a company to whom one legitimately owes money, but that refuses to accept the payment or respond to communications regarding payment logistics? The hypothetical debt is low 3 digit dollars, which our hypothetical lay person has on hand and wants to hand over and get this bullshit off their plate, but the company (hypothetically) doesn't seem interested.
