Good thread! ^

I note that Australia was not initially a party to the Montreal Convention and may still not be. If not, in many cases, the Warsaw convention could apply.

While this thread deals very well with the Montreal Convention, in those cases where it does not apply and the Warsaw Convention may apply instead, what are the major differences in application and compensation?

(i.e. I see a Checked Baggage rate on 17 SDR per Kg)
