Press Release: Opinion of the Advocate General in Joined Cases C-168/16 and C-169/16. Sandra Nogueira and Others v Crewlink Ltd and Miguel José Moreno Osacar v Ryanair

According to Advocate General Saugmandsgaard Øe, disputes relating to contracts of employment of air hostesses and stewards come within the jurisdiction of the courts of the place ‘where or from which’ those employees principally carry out their obligations vis-à-vis their employer.

The national court must determine that place in the light of all the relevant circumstances, including the place where the worker starts and ends his working days.
