Being US based, I will sue in Small Claims Court, NYC. I have an address of:
British Airways PLC, 111 8th Avenue, NY, NY 10011
I'd appreciate confirmation that this address is valid.
Many thanks!
I would look carefully before embarking on that approach and check whether there has been any change in ability to do so; I believe that it was ruled that the US court cannot apply EU laws and so cannot be claimed through a US court - I would check whether any succesful appeal against that has occurred
If it hasn't, I would suggest using one of the myriad of 3rd party companies to handle it
