itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>In today\u2019s travel landscape, online travel agencies (OTAs) increasingly offer flights that combine flights from different airlines in one single reservation. But what happens when this combination results in issues, such as missed connections? What responsibility does the airlines have and how can an airline avoid being held liable for flights it did not operate? The Court of Justice of the European Union (ECJ) addressed these issues for a booking by a stationary travel agency in its ruling in Flightright GmbH v. American Airlines on October 6, 2022 (case no.: C-436\/21). This decision has redefined the concept of \u201csingle bookings\u201d and \u201cdirect connections\u201d as outlined in Art. 2 lit h) of Reg. (EC) 261\/2004, posing potential challenges for both airlines and passengers.<\/p>\n<p>As nearly two years have passed since this decision, it is time for an overview of its current impact on decisions in German courts.<\/p>\n<p>Our Aviation Team recently received a pre-trial order from the Regional Court Landshut and obtained several additional judgments from local courts, underscoring the complexities of OTA bookings while offering airlines potential avenues for exoneration, even within the scope of the above ECJ decision. Here are some examples of these cases we would like to address:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-akjvjb-7-fc701bd38ce8f7cece95b0d562520b44'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>The \u201cAmerican Airlines\u201d Decision of the ECJ from October 6, 2022 (case no.: C-436\/21)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s take a look back: In the \u201cAmerican Airlines\u201d decision, the ECJ ruled that a single booking exists even if a travel agency combines flights from different airlines into a single reservation, charges a total price, and provides a single ticket. Crucial to the court\u2019s reasoning was that it did not matter whether the airlines had a contractual relationship. Rather, the single ticket alone entitled passengers to a continuous transportation right. The ECJ concluded that a single booking or a flight with \u201cdirect connecting flights\u201d under Art. 2 lit h) of Reg. (EC) 261\/2004 exists if two or more flights are part of a single booking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Implications for Airlines<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The American Airlines decision poses new challenges for airlines when dealing with flights sold by OTAs as connected journeys, even though the airline only operates a portion of the route. One issue in particular is that airlines are often unaware of the additional flights OTAs combine into a \u201cwhole\u201d journey through virtual interlining. In these cases, airlines only issue booking numbers for their own flights, while OTAs provide their own \u201cinternal\u201d reference number, which typically doesn\u2019t match the airline\u2019s issued booking numbers. This lack of transparency can lead to airlines being held liable unexpectedly. Some OTAs\u2019 terms and conditions at least clarify that certain flight combinations should be considered separate, but this is an exception. Passengers generally have limited awareness of how these details affect their rights in the event of flight disruptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pre-Trial Order of the Regional Court of Landshut from October 22, 2024 &#8211; 13 S 1024\/24e (Unauthorized Agency)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In October 2024, our Aviation Team could demonstrate in several passenger rights cases that OTA bookings often fail to meet the quality of a \u201csingle booking\u201d as defined above.<\/p>\n<p>In a pro-airline pre-trial order from the Regional Court of Landshut, a single booking was rejected in an appeal process. A leading passenger rights portal\u2019s claim for compensation for a flight from Munich to Palma de Mallorca was dismissed in the first instance. The Erding Local Court rejected the claim as it did not recognize the booking confirmation issued by an OTA as a confirmed booking under Reg. (Ec) 261\/2004. According to the court\u2019s findings, the booking had been issued by an unauthorized travel agency. No cooperation between the agent and the airline or confirmation of the booking by the defendant could be proven.<\/p>\n<p>The Landshut Regional Court agrees and intends to dismiss the portal\u2019s appeal, noting that an OTA invoice alone does not constitute a \u201cconfirmed booking.\u201d An invoice merely reflects the information provided by the issuer. Actions of a third party are, therefore, generally not a clear indicator for a booking confirmation. Furthermore, the court noted that the plaintiff\u2019s reference to the above ECJ ruling does not apply, as it involves a different context: the unauthorized agent does not qualify as a \u201ctravel company\u201d under the ECJ definition.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Judgment of Local Court of K\u00f6nigs Wusterhausen (Berlin) of October 11, 2024 &#8211; 200 C 54\/24 (Invalid \u201cScreen-Scraping\u201d Bookings)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In another related case before the Local Court of K\u00f6nigs Wusterhausen (Berlin), the claim was denied because the passenger rights platform could not prove that the flights from Berlin via Barcelona to Porto were facilitated by an OTA as a single booking. The submitted booking documents included two different booking codes, of which only one could be assigned to the airline we represented. This contradicts German Federal Supreme Court (BGH) and ECJ case law, which requires one booking code for a single booking.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the court noted that the OTA repeatedly informed passengers (e.g. in the booking confirmation) that these were separate tickets. Consequently, each ticket required individual check-in, and through-checked baggage was not possible. This was also clearly communicated in the OTA\u2019s terms and conditions, which the court found to preclude a single booking.<\/p>\n<p>The court further noted that the OTA used the so-called \u201cscreen-scraping\u201d method, which simulates a booking by a regular passenger, without using the airline\u2019s authorized booking channels for agencies. Therefore, according to the court, the intermediary was not authorized to make an official booking on behalf of the airline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Judgment of the Local Court of Hannover from September 26, 2024 &#8211; 540 C 3176\/24 (Lack of Jurisdiction)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In another case, our Aviation Team successfully argued for the dismissal of a claim by the Hannover District Court due to a lack of jurisdiction, given the absence of a \u201csingle booking\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The case involved multiple flight segments from Hannover via Palma de Mallorca to Malaga. The court found that it lacked both local and international jurisdiction, as claims under the Reg. (EC) 261\/2004 fall under the jurisdiction of the courts at the port of departure or arrival. In this instance, the claim involved a disruption on the onward flight from Palma de Mallorca to Malaga, so the court held that Spanish courts would have jurisdiction, as the existence of a single booking was denied.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Concluding Remarks<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The ECJ case law on \u201csingle bookings\u201d and \u201cdirect connecting flights\u201d underscores the growing challenges airlines face in a booking environment shaped by OTAs. Airlines should be aware that, in certain situations, they could be held liable for flight disruptions beyond their control.<\/p>\n<p>The recent judgments achieved by our firm demonstrate that, despite the ECJ decision, German courts remain open to the argument that an airline\u2019s liability can be limited to the flight it actually operated or intended to operate (in the event of a disruption). OTAs that independently combine flights do not automatically establish a legal basis for continuous airline liability.<\/p>\n<p>Developing a clear defense strategy is crucial, based on a detailed analysis of booking processes, OTA terms, and a careful review of booking documentation and specific contractual relationships between airlines and OTAs.<\/p>\n<p>As a law firm specializing in aviation law, we support airlines in defending against unjustified passenger claims. Our expertise and recent court successes demonstrate that a well-founded defense strategy not only saves costs but also enhances legal certainty for all involved.
