Carriage of passengers and their luggage by sea - excluding Articles 10 and 11

This procedure concerns the adoption of the Athens Convention, which establishes a uniform set of rules for the carriage of passengers and their luggage by sea. It aims to standardize the liability of carriers and the compensation available to passengers in the event of accidents or losses.

This affects shipping companies and passengers traveling by sea. It ensures a consistent legal framework for claims and damages across participating jurisdictions.
