deduction of a reasonable administration fee.

If upon finding the original Ticket before the expiry of its validity, you surrender it to the carrier issuing the new Ticket, the foregoing refund will be processed at that time.

3.1.8 A ticket is valuable and you should take appropriate measures to safeguard it and ensure it is not lost or stolen.

the flights shown on the Ticket and may not be changed at all, or only upon payment of an additional fee.

ARTICLE 15 – LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE

15.1 LIABILITY RULES
15.1.1 Our liability to you will be governed by our Conditions of Carriage and the liability of each Carrier involved in your journey will be determined by its own Conditions of Carriage.

15.1.2 Unless otherwise stated in these Conditions, international travel, as defined in the Convention, is subject to the liability rules of the Convention.

15.2 LIABILITY FOR DEATH, WOUNDING OR OTHER BODILY INJURY TO PASSENGERS
15.2.1 Our liability in respect of damages sustained in the event of death, wounding or any other bodily injury of a passenger in the event of an accident shall not be subject to any financial limit, be it defined by law, convention or contract.

15.2.2 For any damages up to the sum of the equivalent of 100,000 SDRs (US $120,000), we shall not exclude or limit our liability by proving that we and our agents have taken all necessary measures to avoid the damage or that it was impossible for us or our agents to take such measures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if we prove that the damage was caused by, or contributed to by, the negligence of the injured or deceased passenger, we may be exonerated wholly or partly from our liability in accordance with applicable law. For claims in excess of this limit, we shall not be liable for damages if we can prove that:

  • such damage was not due to our or our agent’s negligence or other wrongful act or omission; or
  • such damage was solely due to the negligence or other wrongful act or omission of a third party.

 

15.2.3 We shall, without delay, and in any event not later than fifteen (15) days after the identity of the natural person entitled to compensation has been established, make such advance payment as may be required to meet immediate economic needs on a basis proportional to the hardship suffered.
Such advance payment shall not be less than the equivalent of 16,000 SDRs (US $19,000) per passenger in the event of death.

15.2.4 An advance payment shall not constitute recognition of our liability and may be offset against any subsequent sums paid on the basis of our liability. Such advance payment is not returnable, except (i) in cases where we prove that the damage was caused by, or contributed to by, the negligence
of the injured or deceased passenger, or (ii) in circumstances where it is subsequently proved that the person who received the advance payment caused, or contributed to, the damage by negligence or was not
the person entitled to compensation.

15.2.5 We are not responsible for any illness, injury or disability, including death, attributable to your physical condition or for the aggravation of such condition.

15.3 LIABILITY FOR DAMAGE TO BAGGAGE
15.3.1 We will not be liable for Damage to Unchecked Baggage unless such Damage is caused by our negligence.

15.3.2 We shall only be liable for Damage sustained in case of Damage to Checked Baggage where the event that caused the Damage took place on board our aircraft or during any period within which the Checked Baggage was in our charge. We shall not be liable if and to the extent that the Damage resulted from the inherent defect, quality or vice of the Baggage. Except in the case of an act or omission done with intent to cause Damage or recklessly
and with knowledge that Damage would probably result, our liability generally in the case of Damage to Checked Baggage shall be limited to 1,000 SDRs (US$1,200) per passenger, unless you have made a special declaration of higher value at the latest at check-in and paid a supplementary fee.

–provided that if in accordance with applicable law different limits of liability are applicable such different limits shall apply. If the weight of the Baggage is not recorded on the Baggage Check, it is presumed that the total weight of the Checked Baggage does not exceed the applicable free baggage allowance for the class of carriage concerned. If in the case of Checked Baggage a higher value is declared in writing pursuant to an excess valuation facility, our liability
shall be limited to such higher declared value.

15.3.3 We are not liable for any Damage caused by your Baggage. You shall be responsible for any Damage caused by your Baggage to other persons or property, including our property.

15.4.2 We are not liable for any Damage arising from our compliance with applicable laws or Government rules and regulations, or from your failure to comply with the same.

15.4.3 We will be liable only for Damage occurring during carriage on flights or flight segments where our Airline Designator Code appears in the carrier box of the Ticket for that flight or flight segment. If we issue a Ticket or if we check Baggage for carriage on another Carrier, we do so only as agent for the other Carrier. Nevertheless, with respect to Checked Baggage, you may make a claim against the first or last carrier.

15.4.4 Except where other specific provision is made in these Conditions, we shall be liable to you only for recoverable compensatory Damages for proven losses and costs, in accordance with the Convention.

15.4.5 The contract of carriage, including these Conditions of Carriage and exclusions or limits of liability, applies to our Authorised Agents, servants, employees and representatives to the same extent as they apply to us. The total amount recoverable from us and from such authorised Agents, employees, representatives and persons shall not exceed the amount of our own liability, if any.

15.4.6 Nothing in these Conditions of Carriage shall waive any exclusion or limitation of our liability under the Convention or applicable laws unless otherwise expressly stated.

15.4.7 Nothing in these Conditions of Carriage:

  • prevents us from excluding or limiting our liability under the Convention or any laws which apply or
  • waives any defence available to us under the Convention or any laws which apply against any public social insurance body or any person liable to pay, or who has paid, compensation for the death, wounding or other bodily injury of a passenger.
