Hi all, New here and after some advice. I booked a package holiday through Olympic Holidays in April with flights operated by TUI. Our (2 of us) return flight (Corfu-Gatwick) was delayed due to a faulty aircraft having been sent back to Gatwick on it's way out to Corfu. This resulted in a 13 hour delay. Due to work commitments, we needed to be back home much earlier than this so unfortunately had to pay for new flights that were operated by Thomas Cook, plus €110 in baggage charges. The total came to around £400 after conversion (flights were £155 each). Before I start the long compensation process and so that I go about this in the correct way, I was looking for advice on: 1) Do I claim through Olympic or TUI? 2)Am I entitled to the standardised compensation package, or 3)Because I didn't take the scheduled flight, do TUI/Olympic have to pay me for the flights that I bought due to their delay, or: 4) Are they liable to pay for the flight that we didn't take due to the delay? I have a feeling Olympic/TUI will try passing me on like a hot potato so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jacob

I don't know whether this is just another conspiracy theory, but some people believe that some recent aeroplane crashes have been caused by them being taken over by remote control devices from the ground. Apparently according to aviation experts, it is now possible to take over the control of most aircraft from the ground. I find this a little scary if true and if there was any possibility of this then it would be covered up by the airlines, aviation authorities and governments. There would be sudden reduction in the number of people booking flights, until some reassurance had been provided, that it could not happen. It is not just the crashes that have been reported, but there have also been reports of flightcrew losing control over aircrafts for short periods or having unexplained problems. Or it could just be that the modern generation of aircraft with a large number of computers/electronics, are being kept in service for too long. We all know that cars with all the modern electronics start to fail after a period, even if the mechanics are in working oder.
