Notice of Liability and Baggage Limitations

“Montreal Convention” means the Convention for the unification of certain rules for international carriage by air, signed at Montreal, May 28, 1999.
“Warsaw Convention” means the Convention for the unification of certain rules relating to international carriage by air, signed at Warsaw, October 12, 1929, or that Convention as amended by the Hague Protocol, 1955, whichever may be applicable to travel hereunder, but not including the Montreal Convention.

CanJet’s International Charter and Scheduled Tariff incorporate the Montreal Convention or the Warsaw Convention, as the case may be, and in the event of an inconsistency, the terms of the applicable Convention shall prevail.
Additional protection may be obtained by purchasing insurance from an insurance company. Such insurance is not affected by any limitation of the carrier’s liability under the Warsaw Convention or such special contracts of carriage.
CanJet assumes no liability for fragile, valuable or perishable articles, including medication or medical devices, money, jewelry, negotiable papers, securities or other valuables, camera, video and electronic equipment, silverware, musical instruments, business documents, samples, paintings, antiques, furs, manuscripts of similar items contained in checked or unchecked baggage.
