1. The Carriage of Goods & the Liability of Air and Sea Carriers Chapter Six

10. Liability of Seagoing Carriers Over 90% or world trade moves by sea. Tens of thousands of containers are lost at sea every year.

17. Individual items do not necessarily equal packages – i.e. the case of 7,790 live plants (p. 213). Items on pallets can either be one package or the number of items on the pallet depending on whether the pallet is wrapped in see-through polyethylene shrink-wrap or not. Moral: always follow good shipping practices of hire someone who will. Examples (which is best?) 1 X 40ft. Container 1 X 40ft. Container STC 12,000 bottles of red wine, or 1 X 40ft. Container STC 1,000 cases of red wine, or 1 X 40ft. Container STC 1,000 packages(cases) of red wine The $500 limit won’t apply to material deviations such as detours or storing non-containerized goods up on deck. Wait, It Gets Even More Complicated
