Liability Limitations are those established by the Warsaw Convention and by Montreal Convention of 28 May 1999 – Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules for International Carriage by Air.

11.1 General Provisions

For the damage proven by AERRO DIREKT to have been caused or contributed to by the negligence or other wrongful act or omission of the claimant, AERRO DIREKT will totally or partly be exonerated from its liability.

When, by reason of death or injury of a Passenger, compensation is claimed by another person than the Passenger, the above-mentioned provisions will likewise apply.

We will not be liable for any damage arising directly or indirectly from our compliance with the applicable laws or government rules and regulations or from your failure to comply with the same, or which arises from circumstances that are not in our responsibility.

We will only be liable for damage occurring during Carriage on Flights or Flight Segments operated under AERRO DIREKT airline Code.

We are not liable for damage to Unchecked Baggage, unless such damage is caused by our gross negligence, as proven by Passenger.

We are only liable for recoverable compensatory damages for proven losses and costs. We are not liable for indirect damages or consequential damage, or for damage recovery of a penal nature. This exclusion of liability is only applicable to consumers where we have not caused the damage deliberately or through gross negligence and the interests of the consumers affected by this damage were not known to us at the time of the conclusion of the contract.

Exclusions or limits of our liability apply also to our service providers, employees, representatives, as well as to every person whose aircraft we operate, including their service providers, employees and representatives. The total amount recoverable from us and from the named persons shall not exceed the amount of our own liability limits.

If the value of the Passenger’s Baggage exceeds the applicable limit of liability, the Passenger should fully insure it before he/she travels. Unless otherwise formally stated, nothing contained herein shall waive any exclusion or limitation of liability of AERRO DIREKT under the Convention or applicable laws.

11.2 Passenger’s death or Injury

Our liability for damages caused by death, injury or damages to the health of a Passenger by an accident on board an aircraft or in the course of any of the operations of embarking or disembarking does not have a financial limitation. For damages up to a value of 113,100 SDR in case of death or injury of a Passenger, AERRO DIREKT will not be able to exclude or limit its liability.

However, AERRO DIREKT will not be liable for any damage sustained in case of death or injury of a Passenger to the extent they exceed 113,100 SDR if proven that:

Such damage was not caused by the negligence, wrongful act or omission of AERRO DIREKT or of its employees or agents; or that

Such damage was caused exclusively by the negligence, wrongful act or omission of a third party

Illness, injury or disability, including death, or for the aggravation of condition of Passengers whose age, mental or physical condition (prior to embarkation) is such as to involve any hazard or risk to themselves during the Carriage.

AERRO DIREKT’s insurance coverage for liability to Passengers is adequate and conform to the applicable law.

AERRO DIREKT shall, without delay and not later than 15 days after the identification of the person entitled to compensation, take all necessary measures for advanced payments in order to meet immediate financial needs proportional to the damage suffered. The value of this prepayment is at least 16,000 SDR per Passenger, in case of death.

Advance payment shall not constitute recognition of liability. AERRO DIREKT reserves the right to demand restitution, partial or total, of the advanced payment if proven that the damage was caused, partially or totally, by the negligence of the injured or deceased Passenger, as well as if it is later proven that the beneficiary of the advanced payment had contributed or provoked through negligence or the above-mentioned Passenger is not the person entitled to compensation.

11.3 Damage to baggage

The Montreal Convention regarding liability limitations stipulates that AERRO DIREKT is liable for destruction, loss or damage to Checked or Unchecked Baggage up to 1,131 SDR.

The limitations of our liability in case of destruction, loss or damage to Checked or Unchecked Baggage will not apply if proven that the damage was caused by an act or omission of AERRO DIREKT done with intent to cause damage or recklessly and with knowledge that damage would probably result; provided that, in the case of such act or omission of an employee or agent, it is proved that such employee or agent was acting within the scope of their employment.

We are not liable neither for the damage resulted from the inherent defect, quality or vice of your Baggage, nor for any damage caused by items in your Baggage. If these items cause injury to another Passenger, damage to Baggage of another Passenger or to our property, you shall be responsible for repayment of all damages and costs to us as a result.

AERRO DIREKT will not be liable for damage or loss of valuable, fragile or perishable objects, money, jewels, precious metals, business or commercial documents, electronic items, passports and other identification documents that have been placed in the Passenger’s Checked Baggage contrary to the provisions of these General Conditions of Carriage.

11.4 Compensations in case of delay

In case of Passenger delay, we are liable for paying compensations unless we took all the reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for passenger delay is limited to 4,694 SDR.

12. OTHER CONDITIONS

Carriage of you and your Baggage is also provided in accordance with other certain regulations and conditions applying to or adopted by us. These regulations and conditions, as varied from time to time, are important and concern among other things the Carriage of unaccompanied minors, restrictions on the use of electronic devices, the consumption of alcoholic beverages on board, etc.

13. COMPLAINTS

If the passenger is dissatisfied with the services provided by AERRO DIREKT, he must send immediately a clear and explicit complaint in written on the matters of his dissatisfaction, to AERRO DIREKT via e-mail at _________@flyyo.com or by post to the registered head office of the Carrier.

In case the checked baggage is damaged, the passenger must complain immediately after discovering the damage or at least within 7 days after receiving the checked baggage. In case of baggage delay the complaint must be made at least within 21 days from the date on which the baggage was delivered to the passenger. In case of damages sustained in case of death or bodily injury of a passenger, a claim must be submitted within 30 days of the reported event.

All claims shall include the identification and contact details of the claimant and indication or concrete description of the services claimed. Anonymous complaints will not be taken into consideration. AERRO DIREKT will respond to complaints within 30 days from the date of its registration/ receipt of all necessary documents for solving the claim. The response will be send in written to the contact details indicated by the claimant either via e-mail (as attachment to it) or by fax/mail to the postal address indicated in the complaint.

Passenger undertakes to engage third parties to claim on their behalf, only after he has submitted a complaint directly to AERRO DIREKT and the 30 days response term has passed without receiving any reply from AERRO DIREKT.

AERRO DIREKT will not process complaints submitted by a third party if the passenger concerned has not submitted the claim directly to AERRO DIREKT and allowed AERRO DIREKT time to respond in accordance with the aforementioned provisions.
