JMC fails to get ruling overturned

to overturn a legal ruling that it had failed in its responsibility to a passenger by giving them a 29 inch seat pitch.

The operator lost an appeal at Chester County Court against a decision that the seat pitch given to Brian Horan, 57, from Cheshire, was too small.

A statement issued by JMC said: “JMC Holidays Ltd will consider carefully the need to lodge an appeal against the decision announced at Chester County Court.

“The company continues to believe that the interpretation of the tour operator’s responsibilities for its supplier in this case was incorrect and JMC was not in breach of its contract with Mr Horan.”
