I won.





In my case, the airline was represented by one of the five largest law firms in world. At a conservative estimate, it cost the airline at least AUD25k in legal fees. The airline sought leave to be represented by a lawyer in court; I opposed and the motion was denied. It cost me a hell of a lot of time but other than that, only court filing fees which were awarded to me as part of the judgment.



In my case I referred the court to the conditions of carriage. It didn't hurt my case.
I'm glad you are a lottery winner. I cant see anyone flying all the way to Australia to sue Air New Zealand for this deal.
