Question 22 According to the Warsaw Convention, an air carrier is presumptively liable for all damage to air cargo unless it can prove: a. the damage did not occur as a result of its negligence. b. the loss was caused by the negligence of the shipper. c. either the damage did not occur as a result of its negligence or the loss was caused by the negligence of the shipper. d. none of these, since the convention only governs baggage claims.

The correct answer is c. either the damage did not occur as a result of its negligence or the loss was caused by the negligence of the shipper.<br /><br />According to the Warsaw Convention, an air carrier is presumptively liable for all damage to air cargo unless it can prove that either the damage did not occur as a result of its negligence or the loss was caused by the negligence of the shipper. This means that the air carrier has the burden of proof to show that it was not negligent or that the shipper was negligent. If the air carrier fails to meet this burden of proof, it will be held liable for the damage to the air cargo.
