Contracts of Carriage

Contracts of carriage are agreements between a carrier (like an airline or shipping company) and a passenger or shipper for the transportation of goods or people. These contracts outline the responsibilities and rights of both parties, including payment terms, delivery times, and liability for loss or damage. Essentially, when you buy a ticket or ship an item, you're entering a contract that specifies how your journey or shipment will be handled, what to expect during transit, and what recourse you have if things go wrong.
