The Comparision of Carrier’s Liability Regime for Air Cargo under Warsaw Convention and Montreal Convention
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper intends to describe the liability regime of the carrier under the Montreal Convention of 1999 for the international cargo, comparing to those of the existing Warsaw Convention system. Also this paper deals with main issues of the Montreal Convention which are relevant for the carrier’s liability in the carriage by air of cargo. The Warsaw Convention was adopted in 1929 and modified successively in 1955, 1961, 1971, 1975, and 1999. The Montreal Convention of 1999 modernized and consolidated the Warsaw Convention and related instruments. The Montreal Convention is expected to enter into force in 2003 upon the 30th ratification. International air carrier is liable by application of principle of strict liability as stated in the Montreal Convention : The carrier is liable for the destruction or loss of, or damage to cargo and delay during the carriage by air, and the carriers liability is limited to a sum of 17 Special Drawing Rights per kilogramme. However, The Montreal Convention has main outstanding issues with respect to the liability of the carrier : potential conflicts between the Montreal Convention and the Warsaw Convention, the amounts of limits of the carrier’s liability, the duration of the carrier’s liability, the excessive litigation, and the aviation insurance. Consequently, the conditions and limits of the carrier’s liability under the Montreal Convention should be readjusted and regulated in detail.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
