If you purchased an airline ticket for travel between the United States and Asia, Australia, New Zealand, or the Pacific Islands between 1/1/2000 and the present, you may be entitled to a portion of a $39,502,000 settlement fund. There are multiple airlines (listed below) that are either defendants or co-conspirators in the Transpacific Airline Antitrust Class Action Lawsuit, so there is a good chance that you have been affected. This settlement resolves a lawsuit accusing multiple airlines of conspiring to fix the prices of airline tickets for travel between the United States and Asia/Oceania. As a result of these falsified prices, class action members may have paid more than necessary to travel on these airlines and are entitled to a reimbursement. The airlines deny any wrongdoing and say that the class action settlement is not an admission of guilt.
