Find Elements by Xpath not giving the correct element in Selenium Webdriver

In the following example, I have to click only for Jet Airways. It appears that the xpath selected is correct since it gives the right only from the selection. https://i.sstatic.net/n7s3v.png

However when this same is being pulled by Selenium WebDriver, it says element not visible. But it still gives a Button with zero length text string. as given in watch window.

I would appreciate if anyone can help me to point if any error I am making since I am new to VBA

Not sure if your XPath is correct and is locating the right static element...
You may use this for locating 'Jet Airways'

//label[text()[contains(.,'Jet Airways')]]

Also, using .click(), try clicking on the 'Airlines' dropdown before locating the 'Airlines Dropdown' XPath 

//span[@title='Airlines']

Update:

public class SkyScanner 
{



    static String chkBxXpth = "//label[@class='dropdown-item cfx']/input[@checked]";

        public static void main(String[] args) throws InterruptedException 
        {       
            WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
            Actions actions = new Actions(driver);
            WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);

            driver.manage().window().maximize();
            driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10,TimeUnit.SECONDS);
            driver.get("http://skyscanner.cntraveller.com/en-GB/flights#/result?originplace=AUH&destinationplace=LHR");

            wait.until(ExpectedConditions.visibilityOfElementLocated(By.xpath("//span[@title='Airlines']")));
            driver.findElement(By.xpath("//span[@title='Airlines']")).click();
            List<WebElement> chkBx = driver.findElements(By.xpath(chkBxXpth));
            for(WebElement i : chkBx)
            {
                actions.moveToElement(i).click().perform();
            }
            driver.findElement(By.xpath("//label[text()[contains(.,'Jet Airways')]]")).click();
        }

    }
