Abstract

The purpose of the present article is to critically analyze the conflict between the Consumer Protection Code and the Warsaw and Montreal Conventions on the subject of limitation of the duty to indemnify on the international air carriage, according to the new contours given to the subject after the recent decision of the Supreme Court, dated May 25, 2017, that, altering the previously consolidated understanding, established, with general repercussion, the prevalence of the international Conventions over the Consumer Protection Code.
