Affirmed
Dist. Ct. did not err in dismissing plaintiffs’ class action alleging that defendant-airline’s cancellation of flights, as well as its long delays for flights emanating from airports located in European Union Member States, violated certain regulations promulgated by European Parliament. Record showed that said regulations had not been incorporated into defendant’s contract for carriage so as to support any breach of contract claim, and relevant regulations, which required each EU Member State to designate appropriate body to handle enforcement of said regulation, implicitly limited judicial redress to courts of EU Member States.
