Carriage by Air

The law relating to carriage by air is founded on the Warsaw Convention of 1929, as amended and adapted, which provides a set of uniform rules to govern questions of jurisdiction, limitation periods, systems of documentation, burden of proof, assessment of damages and limits of liability. This guide to the UK statutory scheme provides a detailed analysis on an article-by-article basis of the Warsaw Convention and focuses in particular on the adoption of the international provisions into the UK legislation.
