Information on ordering the full text of each air carrier’s conditions of carriage is available at any location where the air carrier’s tickets are sold.
Notice/Conditions of Contract
As used in this contract "ticket" means this passenger ticket and baggage check, of which these conditions and notices form part, "carriage" is equivalent to "transportation," "carrier" means all air carriers that carry or undertake to carry the passenger or his baggage hereunder or perform any other service incidental to such air carriage, "WARSAW CONVENTION" means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw, 12th October 1929, or that Convention as amended at The Hague, 28th September 1955, whichever may be applicable. “MONTREAL CONVENTION” means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air done at Montreal on May 28, 1999.
Carriage hereunder is subject to the rules and limitations relating to liability established by the Warsaw Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention, unless such carriage is not "international carriage" as defined by those Conventions.
To the extent not in conflict with the foregoing carriage and other services performed by each carrier are subject to: (i) provisions contained in a ticket; (ii) applicable tariffs; (iii) carrier's condition of carriage and related regulations which are made part hereof (and are available on application at the offices of the carrier) except in transportation between a place and the United States or Canada and any place outside thereof to which tariffs in force in those countries apply.
Carrier's name may be abbreviated in the ticket, the full name and its abbreviation being set forth in carrier's tariffs, conditions of carriage, regulations or timetables. Carrier's address shall be the airport of departure shown opposite the first abbreviation of the carrier’s name in the ticket. The agreed stopping places are those places set forth in the ticket or as shown in the carrier’s timetables as scheduled stopping places on the passenger’s route. Carriage to be performed hereunder by several successive carriers is regarded as a single operation.
An air carrier issuing a ticket for carriage over the lines of another air carrier does so only as its agent.
Any exclusion or limitation of liability of carrier shall apply to and be for the benefit of agents, servants and representatives of carrier and any entity whose aircraft is used by carrier for carriage and that entity’s agents, servants and representatives.
Checked baggage will be delivered to bearer of the baggage check. In case of damage to baggage moving in international transportation complaint must be made in writing to carrier forthwith after discovery of damage and, at the latest, within 7 days from receipt. In case of delay, complaint must be made within 21 days from date the baggage was delivered. [See tariffs or conditions of carriage regarding non-international transportation.]
The ticket is good for carriage one year from date of issue except if otherwise provided in the ticket, in carrier’s tariffs, conditions of carriage, or related regulations. The fare for carriage is subject to change prior to commencement of carriage. Carrier may refuse transportation if the applicable fare has not yet been paid.
Carrier undertakes to use its best efforts to carry the passenger and baggage with reasonable dispatch. Times shown in timetable or elsewhere are not guaranteed and form no part of the contract. Carrier may without notice substitute alternate carriers or aircraft, and may alter or omit stopping places shown on the ticket in case of necessity. Schedules are subject to change without prior notice. Except as stated in the Conditions of Carriage, carrier assumes no responsibility for making connections. For damage occasioned by delay to your journey, 4694 Special Drawing Rights (approximately EUR5539; $US7036) per passenger in most cases.
Passenger shall comply with government travel requirements, present exit and entry and other required documents and arrive at airport by time fixed by carrier or, if no time is fixed, early enough to complete departure procedures.
No agent, servant or representative of carrier has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract unless authorised by a corporate officer of carrier.
Notice of Overbooking of Flights
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. To be eligible for compensation, customers must have presented themselves at the airport for check-in at least two (2) hours before departure of the international flight. Check-in means face-to-face interaction with an airline representative at the check-in counter.
Advice to Passengers on Limitation of Liability
Passengers on a journey involving an ultimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised that the provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as appropriate may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of CARIBBEAN AIRLINES and certain other carriers party to such special contract; for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US$75,000 per passenger where travel is governed by the Warsaw Convention and SDR113,100where travel is governed by the Montreal Convention*, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For passengers traveling by a Carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the Carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US$10,000 or US$20,000. The names of Carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of Carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by limitation of the Carrier’s liability under the Conventions or such special contract of carriage. For further information please consult your airline or insurance company representative.
*Note: The limit of liability of US$75,000 or SDR113,100 above is not inclusive of legal fees and costs except that in the case of a claim brought in a State where provision is made for separate award of legal fees and costs, the limit shall be the sum of US$58,000 exclusive of legal fees and costs.
EC Regulations 2027/97
CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is not subject to and does not apply the liability provisions of European Community Regulation 2027/97 which requires European Community air carriers not to apply any financial limit to their liability to passengers for death or injury, and to make prompt advance payments in the event of hardship following an accident. CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is subject to and applies the liability provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention, as applicable.

The agreed stopping places are those places set forth in the ticket or as shown in the carrier’s timetables as scheduled stopping places on the passenger’s route. Carriage to be performed hereunder by several successive carriers is regarded as a single operation.
An air carrier issuing a ticket for carriage over the lines of another air carrier does so only as its agent.
Any exclusion or limitation of liability of carrier shall apply to and be for the benefit of agents, servants and representatives of carrier and any entity whose aircraft is used by carrier for carriage and that entity’s agents, servants and representatives.
Checked baggage will be delivered to bearer of the baggage check. In case of damage to baggage moving in international transportation complaint must be made in writing to carrier forthwith after discovery of damage and, at the latest, within 7 days from receipt. In case of delay, complaint must be made within 21 days from date the baggage was delivered. [See tariffs or conditions of carriage regarding non-international transportation.]
The ticket is good for carriage one year from date of issue except if otherwise provided in the ticket, in carrier’s tariffs, conditions of carriage, or related regulations. The fare for carriage is subject to change prior to commencement of carriage. Carrier may refuse transportation if the applicable fare has not yet been paid.
Carrier undertakes to use its best efforts to carry the passenger and baggage with reasonable dispatch. Times shown in timetable or elsewhere are not guaranteed and form no part of the contract. Carrier may without notice substitute alternate carriers or aircraft, and may alter or omit stopping places shown on the ticket in case of necessity. Schedules are subject to change without prior notice. Except as stated in the Conditions of Carriage, carrier assumes no responsibility for making connections. For damage occasioned by delay to your journey, 4694 Special Drawing Rights (approximately EUR5539; $US7036) per passenger in most cases.
Passenger shall comply with government travel requirements, present exit and entry and other required documents and arrive at airport by time fixed by carrier or, if no time is fixed, early enough to complete departure procedures.
No agent, servant or representative of carrier has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract unless authorised by a corporate officer of carrier.
Notice of Overbooking of Flights
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. To be eligible for compensation, customers must have presented themselves at the airport for check-in at least two (2) hours before departure of the international flight. Check-in means face-to-face interaction with an airline representative at the check-in counter.
Advice to Passengers on Limitation of Liability
Passengers on a journey involving an ultimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised that the provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as appropriate may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of CARIBBEAN AIRLINES and certain other carriers party to such special contract; for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US$75,000 per passenger where travel is governed by the Warsaw Convention and SDR113,100where travel is governed by the Montreal Convention*, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For passengers traveling by a Carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the Carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US$10,000 or US$20,000. The names of Carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of Carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by limitation of the Carrier’s liability under the Conventions or such special contract of carriage. For further information please consult your airline or insurance company representative.
*Note: The limit of liability of US$75,000 or SDR113,100 above is not inclusive of legal fees and costs except that in the case of a claim brought in a State where provision is made for separate award of legal fees and costs, the limit shall be the sum of US$58,000 exclusive of legal fees and costs.
EC Regulations 2027/97
CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is not subject to and does not apply the liability provisions of European Community Regulation 2027/97 which requires European Community air carriers not to apply any financial limit to their liability to passengers for death or injury, and to make prompt advance payments in the event of hardship following an accident. CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is subject to and applies the liability provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention, as applicable.

Notice/Conditions of Contract
As used in this contract "ticket" means this passenger ticket and baggage check, of which these conditions and notices form part, "carriage" is equivalent to "transportation," "carrier" means all air carriers that carry or undertake to carry the passenger or his baggage hereunder or perform any other service incidental to such air carriage, "WARSAW CONVENTION" means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw, 12th October 1929, or that Convention as amended at The Hague, 28th September 1955, whichever may be applicable. “MONTREAL CONVENTION” means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air done at Montreal on May 28, 1999.
Carriage hereunder is subject to the rules and limitations relating to liability established by the Warsaw Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention, unless such carriage is not "international carriage" as defined by those Conventions.
To the extent not in conflict with the foregoing carriage and other services performed by each carrier are subject to: (i) provisions contained in a ticket; (ii) applicable tariffs; (iii) carrier's condition of carriage and related regulations which are made part hereof (and are available on application at the offices of the carrier) except in transportation between a place and the United States or Canada and any place outside thereof to which tariffs in force in those countries apply.
Carrier's name may be abbreviated in the ticket, the full name and its abbreviation being set forth in carrier's tariffs, conditions of carriage, regulations or timetables. Carrier's address shall be the airport of departure shown opposite the first abbreviation of the carrier’s name in the ticket. The agreed stopping places are those places set forth in the ticket or as shown in the carrier’s timetables as scheduled stopping places on the passenger’s route. Carriage to be performed hereunder by several successive carriers is regarded as a single operation.
An air carrier issuing a ticket for carriage over the lines of another air carrier does so only as its agent.
Any exclusion or limitation of liability of carrier shall apply to and be for the benefit of agents, servants and representatives of carrier and any entity whose aircraft is used by carrier for carriage and that entity’s agents, servants and representatives.
Checked baggage will be delivered to bearer of the baggage check. In case of damage to baggage moving in international transportation complaint must be made in writing to carrier forthwith after discovery of damage and, at the latest, within 7 days from receipt. In case of delay, complaint must be made within 21 days from date the baggage was delivered. [See tariffs or conditions of carriage regarding non-international transportation.]
The ticket is good for carriage one year from date of issue except if otherwise provided in the ticket, in carrier’s tariffs, conditions of carriage, or related regulations. The fare for carriage is subject to change prior to commencement of carriage. Carrier may refuse transportation if the applicable fare has not yet been paid.
Carrier undertakes to use its best efforts to carry the passenger and baggage with reasonable dispatch. Times shown in timetable or elsewhere are not guaranteed and form no part of the contract.

No agent, servant or representative of carrier has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract unless authorised by a corporate officer of carrier.
Notice of Overbooking of Flights
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. To be eligible for compensation, customers must have presented themselves at the airport for check-in at least two (2) hours before departure of the international flight. Check-in means face-to-face interaction with an airline representative at the check-in counter.
Advice to Passengers on Limitation of Liability
Passengers on a journey involving an ultimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised that the provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as appropriate may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of CARIBBEAN AIRLINES and certain other carriers party to such special contract; for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US$75,000 per passenger where travel is governed by the Warsaw Convention and SDR113,100where travel is governed by the Montreal Convention*, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For passengers traveling by a Carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the Carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US$10,000 or US$20,000. The names of Carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of Carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by limitation of the Carrier’s liability under the Conventions or such special contract of carriage. For further information please consult your airline or insurance company representative.
*Note: The limit of liability of US$75,000 or SDR113,100 above is not inclusive of legal fees and costs except that in the case of a claim brought in a State where provision is made for separate award of legal fees and costs, the limit shall be the sum of US$58,000 exclusive of legal fees and costs.
EC Regulations 2027/97
CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is not subject to and does not apply the liability provisions of European Community Regulation 2027/97 which requires European Community air carriers not to apply any financial limit to their liability to passengers for death or injury, and to make prompt advance payments in the event of hardship following an accident. CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is subject to and applies the liability provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention, as applicable.

Approximate fare information in currencies other than the currency used to compute the fare is calculated using currency exchange information derived from publicly available sources and is believed to be accurate. However CARIBBEAN AIRLINES does not warrant or guarantee such accuracy, as currency rates may vary, and CARIBBEAN AIRLINES may not routinely verify the accuracy of the calculator or data.

Notice/Conditions of Contract
As used in this contract "ticket" means this passenger ticket and baggage check, of which these conditions and notices form part, "carriage" is equivalent to "transportation," "carrier" means all air carriers that carry or undertake to carry the passenger or his baggage hereunder or perform any other service incidental to such air carriage, "WARSAW CONVENTION" means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw, 12th October 1929, or that Convention as amended at The Hague, 28th September 1955, whichever may be applicable. “MONTREAL CONVENTION” means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air done at Montreal on May 28, 1999.
Carriage hereunder is subject to the rules and limitations relating to liability established by the Warsaw Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention, unless such carriage is not "international carriage" as defined by those Conventions.
To the extent not in conflict with the foregoing carriage and other services performed by each carrier are subject to: (i) provisions contained in a ticket; (ii) applicable tariffs; (iii) carrier's condition of carriage and related regulations which are made part hereof (and are available on application at the offices of the carrier) except in transportation between a place and the United States or Canada and any place outside thereof to which tariffs in force in those countries apply.
Carrier's name may be abbreviated in the ticket, the full name and its abbreviation being set forth in carrier's tariffs, conditions of carriage, regulations or timetables. Carrier's address shall be the airport of departure shown opposite the first abbreviation of the carrier’s name in the ticket. The agreed stopping places are those places set forth in the ticket or as shown in the carrier’s timetables as scheduled stopping places on the passenger’s route. Carriage to be performed hereunder by several successive carriers is regarded as a single operation.
An air carrier issuing a ticket for carriage over the lines of another air carrier does so only as its agent.
Any exclusion or limitation of liability of carrier shall apply to and be for the benefit of agents, servants and representatives of carrier and any entity whose aircraft is used by carrier for carriage and that entity’s agents, servants and representatives.
Checked baggage will be delivered to bearer of the baggage check. In case of damage to baggage moving in international transportation complaint must be made in writing to carrier forthwith after discovery of damage and, at the latest, within 7 days from receipt. In case of delay, complaint must be made within 21 days from date the baggage was delivered. [See tariffs or conditions of carriage regarding non-international transportation.]
The ticket is good for carriage one year from date of issue except if otherwise provided in the ticket, in carrier’s tariffs, conditions of carriage, or related regulations. The fare for carriage is subject to change prior to commencement of carriage. Carrier may refuse transportation if the applicable fare has not yet been paid.
Carrier undertakes to use its best efforts to carry the passenger and baggage with reasonable dispatch. Times shown in timetable or elsewhere are not guaranteed and form no part of the contract. Carrier may without notice substitute alternate carriers or aircraft, and may alter or omit stopping places shown on the ticket in case of necessity. Schedules are subject to change without prior notice. Except as stated in the Conditions of Carriage, carrier assumes no responsibility for making connections. For damage occasioned by delay to your journey, 4694 Special Drawing Rights (approximately EUR5539; $US7036) per passenger in most cases.
Passenger shall comply with government travel requirements, present exit and entry and other required documents and arrive at airport by time fixed by carrier or, if no time is fixed, early enough to complete departure procedures.
No agent, servant or representative of carrier has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract unless authorised by a corporate officer of carrier.
Notice of Overbooking of Flights
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. To be eligible for compensation, customers must have presented themselves at the airport for check-in at least two (2) hours before departure of the international flight. Check-in means face-to-face interaction with an airline representative at the check-in counter.
Advice to Passengers on Limitation of Liability
Passengers on a journey involving an ultimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised that the provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as appropriate may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of CARIBBEAN AIRLINES and certain other carriers party to such special contract; for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US$75,000 per passenger where travel is governed by the Warsaw Convention and SDR113,100where travel is governed by the Montreal Convention*, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For passengers traveling by a Carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the Carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US$10,000 or US$20,000. The names of Carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of Carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by limitation of the Carrier’s liability under the Conventions or such special contract of carriage. For further information please consult your airline or insurance company representative.
*Note: The limit of liability of US$75,000 or SDR113,100 above is not inclusive of legal fees and costs except that in the case of a claim brought in a State where provision is made for separate award of legal fees and costs, the limit shall be the sum of US$58,000 exclusive of legal fees and costs.
EC Regulations 2027/97
CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is not subject to and does not apply the liability provisions of European Community Regulation 2027/97 which requires European Community air carriers not to apply any financial limit to their liability to passengers for death or injury, and to make prompt advance payments in the event of hardship following an accident. CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is subject to and applies the liability provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention, as applicable.

Notice/Conditions of Contract
As used in this contract "ticket" means this passenger ticket and baggage check, of which these conditions and notices form part, "carriage" is equivalent to "transportation," "carrier" means all air carriers that carry or undertake to carry the passenger or his baggage hereunder or perform any other service incidental to such air carriage, "WARSAW CONVENTION" means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw, 12th October 1929, or that Convention as amended at The Hague, 28th September 1955, whichever may be applicable. “MONTREAL CONVENTION” means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air done at Montreal on May 28, 1999.
Carriage hereunder is subject to the rules and limitations relating to liability established by the Warsaw Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention, unless such carriage is not "international carriage" as defined by those Conventions.
To the extent not in conflict with the foregoing carriage and other services performed by each carrier are subject to: (i) provisions contained in a ticket; (ii) applicable tariffs; (iii) carrier's condition of carriage and related regulations which are made part hereof (and are available on application at the offices of the carrier) except in transportation between a place and the United States or Canada and any place outside thereof to which tariffs in force in those countries apply.
Carrier's name may be abbreviated in the ticket, the full name and its abbreviation being set forth in carrier's tariffs, conditions of carriage, regulations or timetables. Carrier's address shall be the airport of departure shown opposite the first abbreviation of the carrier’s name in the ticket. The agreed stopping places are those places set forth in the ticket or as shown in the carrier’s timetables as scheduled stopping places on the passenger’s route. Carriage to be performed hereunder by several successive carriers is regarded as a single operation.
An air carrier issuing a ticket for carriage over the lines of another air carrier does so only as its agent.
Any exclusion or limitation of liability of carrier shall apply to and be for the benefit of agents, servants and representatives of carrier and any entity whose aircraft is used by carrier for carriage and that entity’s agents, servants and representatives.
Checked baggage will be delivered to bearer of the baggage check. In case of damage to baggage moving in international transportation complaint must be made in writing to carrier forthwith after discovery of damage and, at the latest, within 7 days from receipt. In case of delay, complaint must be made within 21 days from date the baggage was delivered. [See tariffs or conditions of carriage regarding non-international transportation.]
The ticket is good for carriage one year from date of issue except if otherwise provided in the ticket, in carrier’s tariffs, conditions of carriage, or related regulations. The fare for carriage is subject to change prior to commencement of carriage. Carrier may refuse transportation if the applicable fare has not yet been paid.
Carrier undertakes to use its best efforts to carry the passenger and baggage with reasonable dispatch. Times shown in timetable or elsewhere are not guaranteed and form no part of the contract. Carrier may without notice substitute alternate carriers or aircraft, and may alter or omit stopping places shown on the ticket in case of necessity. Schedules are subject to change without prior notice. Except as stated in the Conditions of Carriage, carrier assumes no responsibility for making connections. For damage occasioned by delay to your journey, 4694 Special Drawing Rights (approximately EUR5539; $US7036) per passenger in most cases.
Passenger shall comply with government travel requirements, present exit and entry and other required documents and arrive at airport by time fixed by carrier or, if no time is fixed, early enough to complete departure procedures.
No agent, servant or representative of carrier has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract unless authorised by a corporate officer of carrier.
Notice of Overbooking of Flights
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. To be eligible for compensation, customers must have presented themselves at the airport for check-in at least two (2) hours before departure of the international flight. Check-in means face-to-face interaction with an airline representative at the check-in counter.
Advice to Passengers on Limitation of Liability
Passengers on a journey involving an ultimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised that the provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as appropriate may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of CARIBBEAN AIRLINES and certain other carriers party to such special contract; for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US$75,000 per passenger where travel is governed by the Warsaw Convention and SDR113,100where travel is governed by the Montreal Convention*, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For passengers traveling by a Carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the Carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US$10,000 or US$20,000. The names of Carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of Carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by limitation of the Carrier’s liability under the Conventions or such special contract of carriage. For further information please consult your airline or insurance company representative.

Notice/Conditions of Contract
As used in this contract "ticket" means this passenger ticket and baggage check, of which these conditions and notices form part, "carriage" is equivalent to "transportation," "carrier" means all air carriers that carry or undertake to carry the passenger or his baggage hereunder or perform any other service incidental to such air carriage, "WARSAW CONVENTION" means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air signed at Warsaw, 12th October 1929, or that Convention as amended at The Hague, 28th September 1955, whichever may be applicable. “MONTREAL CONVENTION” means the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air done at Montreal on May 28, 1999.
Carriage hereunder is subject to the rules and limitations relating to liability established by the Warsaw Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as it relates to travel governed by the Warsaw Convention, unless such carriage is not "international carriage" as defined by those Conventions.
To the extent not in conflict with the foregoing carriage and other services performed by each carrier are subject to: (i) provisions contained in a ticket; (ii) applicable tariffs; (iii) carrier's condition of carriage and related regulations which are made part hereof (and are available on application at the offices of the carrier) except in transportation between a place and the United States or Canada and any place outside thereof to which tariffs in force in those countries apply.
Carrier's name may be abbreviated in the ticket, the full name and its abbreviation being set forth in carrier's tariffs, conditions of carriage, regulations or timetables. Carrier's address shall be the airport of departure shown opposite the first abbreviation of the carrier’s name in the ticket. The agreed stopping places are those places set forth in the ticket or as shown in the carrier’s timetables as scheduled stopping places on the passenger’s route. Carriage to be performed hereunder by several successive carriers is regarded as a single operation.
An air carrier issuing a ticket for carriage over the lines of another air carrier does so only as its agent.
Any exclusion or limitation of liability of carrier shall apply to and be for the benefit of agents, servants and representatives of carrier and any entity whose aircraft is used by carrier for carriage and that entity’s agents, servants and representatives.
Checked baggage will be delivered to bearer of the baggage check. In case of damage to baggage moving in international transportation complaint must be made in writing to carrier forthwith after discovery of damage and, at the latest, within 7 days from receipt. In case of delay, complaint must be made within 21 days from date the baggage was delivered. [See tariffs or conditions of carriage regarding non-international transportation.]
The ticket is good for carriage one year from date of issue except if otherwise provided in the ticket, in carrier’s tariffs, conditions of carriage, or related regulations. The fare for carriage is subject to change prior to commencement of carriage. Carrier may refuse transportation if the applicable fare has not yet been paid.
Carrier undertakes to use its best efforts to carry the passenger and baggage with reasonable dispatch. Times shown in timetable or elsewhere are not guaranteed and form no part of the contract. Carrier may without notice substitute alternate carriers or aircraft, and may alter or omit stopping places shown on the ticket in case of necessity. Schedules are subject to change without prior notice. Except as stated in the Conditions of Carriage, carrier assumes no responsibility for making connections. For damage occasioned by delay to your journey, 4694 Special Drawing Rights (approximately EUR5539; $US7036) per passenger in most cases.
Passenger shall comply with government travel requirements, present exit and entry and other required documents and arrive at airport by time fixed by carrier or, if no time is fixed, early enough to complete departure procedures.
No agent, servant or representative of carrier has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of the contract unless authorised by a corporate officer of carrier.
Notice of Overbooking of Flights
Airline flights may be overbooked, and there is a slight chance that a seat will not be available on a flight for which a person has a confirmed reservation. If the flight is overbooked, no one will be denied a seat until airline personnel first ask for volunteers willing to give up their reservation in exchange for a payment of the airline’s choosing. If there are not enough volunteers the airline will deny boarding to other persons in accordance with its particular boarding priority. With few exceptions, persons denied boarding involuntarily are entitled to compensation. To be eligible for compensation, customers must have presented themselves at the airport for check-in at least two (2) hours before departure of the international flight. Check-in means face-to-face interaction with an airline representative at the check-in counter.
Advice to Passengers on Limitation of Liability
Passengers on a journey involving an ultimate destination or a stop in a country other than the country of origin are advised that the provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention as appropriate may be applicable to the entire journey, including any portion entirely within the country of origin or destination. For such passengers on a journey to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, the Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of CARIBBEAN AIRLINES and certain other carriers party to such special contract; for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US$75,000 per passenger where travel is governed by the Warsaw Convention and SDR113,100where travel is governed by the Montreal Convention*, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the Carrier. For passengers traveling by a Carrier not a party to such special contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the Carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US$10,000 or US$20,000. The names of Carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of Carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by limitation of the Carrier’s liability under the Conventions or such special contract of carriage. For further information please consult your airline or insurance company representative.
*Note: The limit of liability of US$75,000 or SDR113,100 above is not inclusive of legal fees and costs except that in the case of a claim brought in a State where provision is made for separate award of legal fees and costs, the limit shall be the sum of US$58,000 exclusive of legal fees and costs.
EC Regulations 2027/97
CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is not subject to and does not apply the liability provisions of European Community Regulation 2027/97 which requires European Community air carriers not to apply any financial limit to their liability to passengers for death or injury, and to make prompt advance payments in the event of hardship following an accident. CARIBBEAN AIRLINES is subject to and applies the liability provisions of the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention, as applicable.
