Appellant: flightright GmbH
Respondent: Etihad Airways P.J.S.C.
1.Is Article 8(1)(a) in conjunction with Article 7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 (1) to be interpreted as meaning that an effective signed agreement of the passenger to the reimbursement of ticket costs in the form of travel vouchers and credit notes exists where the passenger has set up an electronic customer account him or herself via the airline’s website to which the travel vouchers and credit notes are to be transferred without having confirmed his or her agreement to this type of reimbursement with a handwritten signature?
2.If Question 1 is answered in the affirmative: Can a passenger revoke his or her agreement, once effectively given, to reimbursement of the ticket costs in the form of travel vouchers and credit notes and again demand performance to be effected by payment in cash if the airline does not subsequently credit the promised travel vouchers and credit notes to the customer account?
