RYANAIR WINS ANOTHER COURT RULING (IN GERMANY) AGAINST
SPANISH OTA PIRATE EDREAMS
Ryanair,
Europe's largest airline, today (Thurs 25 Jul) confirmed that the
Berlin Regional Court in Germany had ruled in favour of Ryanair in
its continuing Court actions against Spanish OTA Pirate, eDreams,
and its overcharging website. This Berlin Court ruling comes less
than a week after the Delaware Court in the USA ruled in favour of
Ryanair in a similar action against Booking.com, which found that
Booking.com was in breach of the US Computer Fraud and Abuse Act,
and had been acting with intent to defraud Ryanair by illegally
scraping Ryanair's website.
In this
latest German ruling, the Berlin Regional Court of First Instance
found that the eDreams payment "service fee" of €3.88 was
excessive and therefore unlawful. The Court also ruled that eDreams
"Flexfare", under which eDreams claims to allow passengers to
change the date and time of their flights for free, was misleading
as all eDreams did was waive its own change fees but the airline
change fees still applied.
Separately,
the Berlin Regional Court also granted Ryanair an injunction
against eDreams Prime T&C's, under which eDreams claimed that
it would only give discounts up to the value of the eDreams Prime
annual membership. This exposes the eDreams Prime false advertising
under which it previously claimed that eDreams Prime members would
receive discounts on "100% of their flights" bookings. Ryanair
continues to expose the eDreams Prime as another overcharging scam
perpetrated by this Spanish OTA Pirate against
consumers.
eDreams
is the last significant OTA Pirate in Europe which is still
illegally scraping Ryanair's website, and still overcharging
unsuspecting consumers for air fares and ancillary services. Almost
all other significant EU OTA's have now signed up to Ryanair's
"Approved OTA" agreements, under which they agree that they will
display Ryanair's true prices for seats and ancillary services, and
they guarantee that Ryanair will receive real customer contact
payment details. These "Approved OTA" agreements protect consumers
from over charging rip offs such as those perpetrated by Spanish
OTA Pirate eDreams, and their eDreams Prime membership
scam.
Ryanair's Chief Marketing Officer Dara Brady said:
"Last week's ruling in the Delaware Courts was a momentous victory
against Booking.com, but was also a significant win for consumers.
Booking.com can no longer illegally scrape Ryanair (and other
airline websites) in order to overcharge consumers for the
underlying air fares or ancillary services. Yet here in Europe,
eDreams remains the last significant OTA Pirate, which is still
illegally scraping Ryanair's website, and still trying to
overcharge unsuspecting consumers with inflated air fares and
marked up ancillary services.
We call on eDreams to cease this anti-consumer overcharging and to
sign up to Ryanair's Approved OTA distribution agreement, like most
other European OTAs now have. This will guarantee consumers real
Ryanair prices for seats and ancillary services and deliver to
Ryanair real customer contact and payment details instead of fake
email addresses and fake card payments. The only reason why eDreams
won't sign is because they prefer to keep overcharging consumers,
especially with their worthless "Prime" membership
scam.
These last remaining OTA Pirates, led by eDreams, must stop
overcharging consumers. If they wish to charge a transparent fee
for their services then that's their decision, but they must stop
scamming and inflating Ryanair and other airline travel prices to
unsuspecting consumers."
