Investigation Details
Investigation and a pending class action lawsuit against British Airways.
The class action lawsuit alleges that British Airways mishandled and lost passengers in violation of provisions of the Montreal Convention, which governs how airlines handle passenger baggage. If the court approves the case as a class-action, it would represent tens of thousands of travelers who have experienced what the suit claims is reckless handling of passenger luggage, and would award them actual losses not limited to the $1,500 cap British Airways invokes.
