论航空承运人的法律责任

Analysing Duty of Airlines in Detail

航空运输的高效、快捷及航空运输行业的专业技术信息的特点,决定了其承运人比旅客或托运人应具有更深的专业知识,因此,在性质上表现为平等的航空运输合同在诸多方面就呈现出不平等性。另外,航空运输本身所属的高风险行业又决定了其在整个运营过程中的任何差错都可能导致极其严重的后果,此种后果不论是对于旅客或托运人,还是对于承运人而言,都是难以承受的。本文以航空运输合同作为研究的出发点,依据中国《民用航空法》及《华沙公约》等国际条约,对承运人的法律责任进行较为详细的分析、评述,旨在完善航空承运人的法律责任。

The main characteristics of aviation transportation are high efficiency and speed. As far as the relationship between the parties concerned, the airlines have more professional techniques and information than the passengers or consignors, so there arise some unequal situations for the passengers or consignors in the aviation transportation contract, moreover, the aviation transportation belongs to the high risk professions,so any mistakes can cause very serious results. This kind of result is unendurable either for the consignors or passengers,especially for the airlines. According to Civil Aviation Law and Warsaw Pact,the duty of the airlines is analysed in detail.
