This Module provides an introduction to the topic of international
aviation law. The Module explains why international law is a universal
system of rules and principles concerning the relations with sovereign
states, and relations between states and international organisations
such as the United Nations and the International Civil Aviation
Organisation. The importance of understanding what is meant by
international law is considered from a perspective of those working in
the aviation industry. The aviation industry is generally regarded as
the most strictly regulated and most internationally harmonised of any
industry sector and so is vital for people working in the aviation
sector to understand this international law framework. It will be
explained why international law is generally considered to be split up
between private international law and public international law. The
typical sources of international law can be found in international
conventions, judicial decisions, customary law, bilateral and
multilateral treaties as well as contracts. The importance of the
Montreal Convention 1999 will be explained in respect to carriage by air
with case study examples being provided.
