Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: FW
Defendant: LATAM Airlines Group SA
Operative part of the judgment
1.Article 4(3) of Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 February 2004 establishing common rules on compensation and assistance to passengers in the event of denied boarding and of cancellation or long delay of flights, and repealing Regulation (EEC) No 295/91, read in conjunction with Article 2(j) of Regulation No 261/2004,
must be interpreted as meaning that an operating air carrier which has informed a passenger in advance that, against that passenger’s will, it is going to deny him or her boarding in respect of a flight for which he or she has a confirmed reservation, must compensate that passenger, even if he or she did not present him or herself for boarding under the conditions set in Article 3(2) of that regulation.
2.Article 5(1)(c)(i) of Regulation No 261/2004
must be interpreted as meaning that that provision establishing an exception to the right to compensation of passengers in the event of cancellation of a flight does not govern the situation in which a passenger has been informed, at least two weeks before the scheduled time of departure of the flight, that, against that passenger’s will, the operating air carrier is going to refuse to carry him or her, so that the passenger concerned must be granted the right to compensation for denied boarding provided for in Article 4 of that regulation.
