​Problems when travelling

​​Those of us who travel by air frequently encounter abrupt flight cancellations or rescheduling, missed schedules or even lost luggage, which not only cause us considerable economic damage (in some cases even loss of chance and loss of earnings), but also a series of complications and suffering in our state of mind that constitute a clear moral damage.

​These irregular procedures, which affect our right to dispose of our time, are often accompanied by a lack of adequate advance notice of these events, as well as a lack of restraint once they have occurred.

​This is despite the fact that commercial aviation is an essential service where the carrier, except in cases of force majeure, must comply with the schedules and itineraries published and indicated in the contract, and is liable for damages resulting from both delays and cancellation of the trip.

​Formal cancellation of a flight in an untimely and unjustified manner constitutes a breach of contract.
​
​Faced with this increasingly frequent scenario, which also occurs in maritime transport (as is typically the case with cruise ships), the law gives us the possibility of claiming for damages suffered, and there are numerous precedents in our courts that certify this.

​Gardenal Abogados has the knowledge and experience to deal with this type of breach of contract, advising and sponsoring the client throughout the legal action that is initiated.
