A antinomia existente entre as Convenções de Varsóvia e Montreal e o Código de Defesa do Consumidor: a questão da limitação da responsabilidade do transportador aéreo

O presente trabalho objetiva analisar, sob o ponto de vista doutrinário e jurisprudencial, a discussão sobre a antinomia entre as Convenções de Varsóvia e Montreal, que estipulam um teto máximo de indenizatório às vítimas de acidentes aéreos, e o Código de Defesa do Consumidor que, ao promover a proteção do consumidor, estabelece a indenização integral pelos danos sofridos pelo fato do serviço. Inicialmente, analisa-se regulação internacional do transporte aéreo no tocante ao regime de responsabilidade, atentando-se para sua evolução e origem histórica. Em seguida, contextualiza-se a proteção do consumidor no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, ressaltando o regime de responsabilidade pelo fato do serviço e o princípio da reparação integral dos danos. Por fim, passa-se para a análise da antinomia existente entre os diplomas, buscando-se a melhor solução diante da atual realidade da sociedade brasileira.

O contrato de transporte aéreo

The international conventions and agreements on civil liability emerged with the purpose of regulating the liability of the air carrier, bearing in mind two essential factors: i) the need to protect passengers interests, and ii) to ensure the continuous development of an incipient activity by limiting the compensation amounts. This research will focus on the analysis of the nature of the contract of air carriage, as well as the air carrier's liability regime regarding damages endured by passengers that may result from the non-performance of the contract.

Intercity Passenger Carrier Improvement Study, Final Report, 1977

The goal of this research was to recommend specific changes relating to service by intercity buses and third level air carriers to propose an appropriate state role in the implementation of changes. Changes contemplated in this research were to be directed to the increased use of intercity buses and third level air carriers in such manner as to exert a benefit to user as well as the general public. Specific objectives of the project included: (1) to analyze the potential for a system of express intercity bus routes in Iowa; (2) to estimate the demand for third level air carrier services in cities having populations under 50,000; (3) to forecast the relationship between economic costs and benefits from an intercity bus system emphasizing express routes between major population centers and supporting a subsystem of local and intraregional public transportation; (4) to estimate the economic feasibility of expanded third level air carrier service with emphasis upon those routes proposed as worth of further evaluation; and (5) to provide guidance for establishing the need for state and local subsidies to institute a system of express intercity buses and to expand third level air carrier services. In addition to passenger movements, enhancing package freight shipments was also to be considered in the evaluation of proposed improvements.

La responsabilità del vettore aereo e marittimo internazionale

Il presente lavoro si articola in due parti, la prima delle quali affronta il tema della responsabilità del vettore aereo internazionale, la seconda quello della responsabilità del vettore marittimo internazionale. Nella prima parte vi è un primo capitolo dedicato ad un inquadramento della disciplina normativa internazionale in materia di responsabilità del vettore aereo, dalla Convenzione dell’Aja del 1955 alla Convenzione di Montreal del 1999; il secondo capitolo è rivolto ad una disamina delle varie ipotesi di responsabilità del vettore, con particolare riferimento a quella per i sinistri alla persona del passeggero; il terzo capitolo costituisce un approfondimento sulla risarcibilità del danno psichico nella Convenzione di Montreal. Quanto alla seconda parte dell’elaborato, il quarto capitolo descrive la normativa vigente in materia di trasporto marittimo internazionale di persone e cose, mentre i due capitoli successivi trattano, rispettivamente, le varie ipotesi di responsabilità del vettore nel trasporto marittimo di persone e di merci ai sensi della Convenzione di Atene e delle Regole di Rotterdam. Il lavoro si chiude con alcune considerazioni conclusive.

Developing service offering of an air freight carrier

The thesis examined service offering development of an air freight carrier from the customers' point of view. The study was limited to the biggest business clients of the carrier. Service offering development can be divided into service concept, process and system. The thesis was based on these three themes and quality. Compared to product development, systematic and well-structured service development has been studied little, especially in business market. However, service development is a current issue. Due to growing competition companies should carefully listen to their clients' needs and respond to them by offering right services. Methodology of the thesis is qualitative and representatives of three forwarding companies were interviewed. It was found out that the forwarding companies consider themselves as partners of the airline. In addition to general reliability, the customers value the most fluent terminal processes and electronic communication.
