| Carrier |
Organisation that
undertakes transportation of goods by sea, surface or air. "Contracting Carrier" means a person or company who as a principle makes an agreement for carriage governed by the Warsaw Convention with a passenger or the consignor. "Actual Carrier" means a person or company other than the contracting carrier, who, by virtue of authority from the contracting carrier, performs the whole or part of the carriage, but who is not, with respect of such part, a consecutive carrier within the meaning of the Warsaw Convention. Such authority is presumed in the absence of proof of the contrary. |
