SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 28 – A passenger on an
Emirates Airlines flight to
Iran was hit on the head by
heavy bottles of alcohol and
sued.
Albany, NY resident Franzaneh
Jazayeri bought the ticket
over the Internet from
"CheapOair" on Emirates, from
Newark to Tehran with stops in
Athens and Dubai. Then the
bottles of liquor fell out of
an overhead
compartment.
The lawsuit,
citing April 17 of the
Montreal Convention, has been
assigned to Judge Sidney H.
Stein of the U.S. District
Court for the Southern
District of New York, which
Inner City Press covers daily
and where it found the case in
the docket.
Emirates'
bare bones answer to date
admits that the plaintiff was
on the manifest of Flight
EK210, a Boeing 777-300 ER Jet
200-345. But the large bottles
of alcohol?
The case is
Jazayeri v. The Emirates Group
et al., 20-cv-8845 (Stein).
