Abstract

This article detects the scope and conditions of the damages award compensation for the air carrier’s liability caused by delay, in terms of the Standard Form Contract issued by the UAE air carriers (the sample of the Emirates Airiness). The Travel Contract is drafted by the Air carrier and not individually negotiated, and that the other party is not authorized to influence or modify its terms. It is necessary to examine its fairness, its representation to the interests of the contracting parties equally, and its compatibility with the relevant provisions provided by the relating international conventions and national laws. This study confirms the fairness of the Travel Contract’ provisions relating to the subject of the research, its fair representation as regards the interests of both contracting parties and its adoption to the broad scope of damage award compensation in agreement with the best practices of both national and international law.
