Bailiffs sent to Luton airport. How does it work?

I'm sure that everyone felt a small glow of satisfaction when the father got bailiffs to visit Wizz air at Luton airport.

But how did he do it? Small claims court?
I assume that there is a waiting time to get a refund, but he claimed for more than that amount, i.e. the 'consequential losses'.
So, if you have your flight cancelled and you pay thousands more to get to your destination, can you claim for this? I'm a bit confused about what is and isn't allowed under law.
Is there an easy-to-read 'What to do' guide for folks in a similar position?
