CARGO LIABILITY LIMITS STANDARDISED

From July 1st, IATA has standardised cargo liability limits,

This means that the Air Waybill (AWB) Conditions of Contract (IATA Resolution 600b) have been brought into alignment with the application of the Montreal Convention liability limit for all air cargo across all routes.

The change is intended to improve efficiency for shippers and forwarders and should increase the certainty and accuracy of claims handling and service determination.
