Flyer sues because he got sparkling wine instead of champagne

And I thought Americans were the only lawsuit friendly people in the world… here’s to Canada!

Who wants to join this class action?

How could the damages ever amount to more than $10?

Restaurants and bars do that all the time. An easy way to tell is to check for a bubble funnel in the glass. French style champagne produces a conical bubble. Sparkling wines do not.

Clearly the punitive damages is at least the cost of the entire trip. Without the advertisement of the champagne toast, there was no chance the complaintants would have travel.

That’s how I felt after buying a $2000 ticket on QR to Asia and finding out later they no longer serve Krug.

I’m gonna take the passenger’s side here. It’s one thing for a FA to mistakenly call it champagne. But for the marketing material to make that mistake is a big deal. Sounds like they have a good chance to win.

Considered doing the same when flying Air Koryo and discovered they had no Koryo Burger on that flight…
