Coffee, Tea or Sparking Wine? Print
Wednesday, October 25 2017

A Canadian man is suing Sunwing Airlines after being served sparkling wine on his flight, contrary to the airline's promotion of "Champagne service."

Daniel MacDuff of Quebec claims in his lawsuit that Sunwing is guilty of misleading market practices in violation of the Quebec Consumer Protection Act. MacDuff is seeking punitive damages for the alleged wrongful practice, as well as compensation for the price difference between the sparkling wine he was served in a plastic cup and the Champagne he expected.

According to news reports, Sunwing believes the lawsuit to be "frivolous and without merit."
