Abstract:
This article addresses Regulation EC No 261/2004 in so far as
it deals with delay in the carriage of passengers by air, as interpreted by the
Court of Justice of the European Union in the joined cases Nelson and TUI
Travel. It considers whether this recent judgment is consistent with the Montreal
Convention of 1999 reaching the overall conclusion that it is not. This
unsatisfactory result is due to purpose of ensuring a level of protection for passenger
higher than that provided by the international uniform rules. This aim
has been achieved affirming the interpretation of the Regulation provided in
the Sturgeon case, in which the Court went far beyond the wording of the
Regulation, and in the IATA case, in which the Court advanced an untenable
and ambiguous construction of the relationship between the Montreal Convention
and Regulation No 261/2004. Conversely, in deciding the joined cases,
the Court neglected its duty to interpret according to the proper criteria provided
by international law the treaties ratified by the EU, and failed to ensure
that the EU respect its duty as contracting party.
