Duty of Passengers or Consignee to Inform Air Carries from the Damages Occurred in Air Transport

In case of damage in air transportation, the person entitled to delivery, must complain to the carrier forthwith after the discovery of the damage within the conventional stipulated time periods. The conventions prohibit suits against the carrier for damage or delay unless a timely written notice is given to the carrier. This article considers such issues as the person entitled to delivery, the necessity of notifying the carrier in complete and partially lost goods, contractual time limitation and damage due to delay. The article will finally discuss the exception to the notice requirements.
