International carriage by air - Transitional provisions

91R: High Contracting Parties not Party to Protocol No 2

You could also call this:

"Rules for countries that haven't agreed to all air travel protocols"

If a country has agreed to Protocol No 4 but not Protocol No 2, there are special rules for air travel. In this case, the law that applies is the same as if Protocol No 2 didn't exist. This means the old rules are used instead of the new ones. You don't need to worry about this unless you're travelling to or from a country that hasn't agreed to both protocols.

  1. Subsection (2) applies where, by reason of the fact that any High Contracting Party or Party, as the case may be, to the Warsaw Convention and the Hague Protocol is a Party to Protocol No 4 but not Additional Protocol No 2, Additional Protocol No 2 is not applicable to any carriage by air.

  2. If this subsection applies, the law applicable to any carriage by air is the law which would have been applicable if the amended Convention had not included the amendments inserted by Protocol No 2.
