You may be owed up to about 1,288 sdr (roughly $1,700-$1,800, fluctuating with exchange rates). This is the Montreal Convention liability limit for international carriage, which applies to every carrier here. It's a cap, not a guarantee — the airline can pay less based on your bag and contents' documented value.
You may be owed up to about 1,288 sdr (roughly $1,700-$1,800, fluctuating with exchange rates). Same Montreal Convention cap applies to damage as to loss. You must report damage within 7 days of receiving the bag to preserve your claim — this deadline is much stricter than for a delayed or lost bag.
