Our analysis concerns the liability of the air carrier in the event of damage suffered by a passenger. We try to be as clear as possible so that even laymen in the law, especially those who enjoy air travel, can understand us. Clearly, the importance of air travel is not something to be neglected or removed from our view, but rather reinforced with each passing day, as this importance becomes more visible and more interesting. It means achieving what it set out to do, i.e. arriving at its destination without any incident or accident whatsoever. Death, injury or loss of luggage caused by the carrier, or the carrier's delay in carrying out the transport operation, are facts that may give rise to civil liability. There are still problems in applying the legal rules on compensation for victims of damage suffered in air transport.
