Warsaw Convention

The Warsaw Convention is an international treaty established in 1929 that governs air travel liability. It sets rules for compensation if passengers are injured, killed, or their baggage is lost or damaged during international flights. The convention aims to ensure passenger rights while also providing airlines with predictable liability limits, promoting safer air travel. It applies to flights between member countries, helping to create consistent standards and protections in the aviation industry. Overall, it balances the interests of passengers and airlines in cases of mishaps.
