7.1.5 Reasons submitted in a request for postponement

Overview

i) Flight cancellation along with impossibility of using other travel means

In T 174/16 the board held that it was unreasonable to consider a flight cancellation, along with the impossibility of using other travel means, not to constitute "serious reasons" within the meaning of the relevant provisions. See also T 1292/21.
