1 Sep 2025 Jetstar Airways Pty LimitedJetstar: 2,250,000 NZD for false statements on compensation rights New ZealandConsumer protection and online retail €1.13m

Between 1 January 2022 and 22 March 2024 the airline gave passengers false information in individual replies, automated emails and on its website about their compensation rights under the Civil Aviation Act for delays and cancellations within its control, so that valid claims were refused. After pleading guilty to 20 representative charges, it was fined 2,250,000 NZD. The Commerce Commission (ComCom, New Zealand's competition and consumer authority) had already issued Jetstar with compliance advice for similar statements before the offending period.

What organisations can take from it

Standard replies and website texts on customer rights must reflect statutory liability correctly, otherwise they become a breach in their own right.
