People, please edit/use the wiki so same questions are not always asked.

The current CTA decision on the Yangon deal is only for tickets canceled by SWISS Airlines for the seven merged complaints/companions and tickets canceled by Jet Airways for one complainant and companions
- It's not about other carriers because each carrier submits different tariffs.
- If you are not one of the complainants or their companions above who were mentioned in the respective cases, you need to submit a case yourself for hearing.
- There's currently one person who is on Iberia for CTA decision, one can either wait for results or submit a complaint to CTA.

Result of the current case for LX in brief is:
- CTA found 5(F) in the tariff used to be unclear for canceling tickets on erroneously quoted fares.
- 5(F) is unjust and unreasonable and must be revised or taken down by July 9, 2013 (or SWISS can appeal by then)
- SWISS did not use its tariff correctly to cancel the tickets.
- SWISS must compensate one complainant's First Class ticket and any related expenses by July 18, 2013 provided with evidence.
- SWISS must transport other complainants (and their companions) in the original price charged with same booking class and routing by June 18, 2014.

Result of the current case for 9W in brief is:
- Tariff on file had no clauses for "erroneous fares" and was updated subsequently, which means it is not relevant to this event
- Therefore, 9W is to reinstate the tickets with a 1-year validity for transport between the same points and the same booking class.


CTA official news can be read here for general overview of the case.

Actual CTA case review can be found here for reference should you wish to file a complaint.

If you have a similar case that's with SWISS, you need to file with CTA to get a result through informal process first before it gets to formal process. The entire procedure can take up to 3 months for each and the result may not be same cause it's case-by-base and the reviewer of the case can be different.

To file an informal complaint with CTA, see here. Click through all of the pages to get to the online form for the informal complaint. Or click here.

To file a formal complaint after informal complaint has been closed, see here. Continue on to the next page to see the address or email address for the formal complaint.

The July 17th and 18th responses from LX can be found here:

I just felt it would be nice to post the breakdown of taxes.
I swear it's automated.

I am torn between laughing and calling my lawyer right now @:-)

Canceled ticket and keep you money? It 1st April today?

Especially given this information posted under the legal section of Expedia.de:

Dieser Service wird betrieben von

Expedia, Inc.
333 108th Ave NE
Bellevue, WA 98004,USA
Handelsregister-Nummer
(Gesellschaftsregister von Washington State : 601 975 803)
"This service is operated by Expedia, Inc.," - a US-company...:-)! Interesting to hear that companies in the United States give a s**t on US-laws...

Greetings - Dirk

Man, I have to say: this is a tough year for you...TL cancelled your round 2 ticket, and now XP cancelled your round 3 ticket! I would be devastated by this streak of mishaps and furious to OTAs!

Was this for Round 3 or 2? I didn't think there were any routings through LAX on Round 3?

But, since this is a Round 3 thread and in the post just above this one you confirmed the response about your Round 3 being cancelled by XP.de, I am very interested in how you got an LAX routing?

There were on the YVR fares. Most people ignored the YVR fares because they were a lot higher, but there were some nice airlines TPAC that were avail.
