THE NSW Court of Appeal has dismissed efforts by Scenic to overturn a ruling on a class action brought by past passengers affected by floods.
High water on the Rhine, Danube, Saone and Rhone rivers in 2013 led to the modification of itineraries for 1,200 of Scenic’s guests, with the class action successfully arguing the cruise line should have forewarned pax about the weather conditions and cancelled and refunded cruises (CW 05 Sep 17).
The NSW Court of Appeal this week upheld the original decision that Scenic’s actions had breached Australian Consumer Law and passengers were entitled to the luxury cruise that was advertised.
Scenic has released a statement in response to the latest judgement, saying its legal team is reviewing the findings and is currently unable to comment any further at this time.
