Ninth Circuit: Montreal Convention Limitations Period Triggered Before Claim Accrued | Practical Law

British Airways, the US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit held that, under the plain language of Article 35(1) of the Montreal Convention, an airline passenger's claim for damages is extinguished if not brought within two years of the date of the flight's arrival or scheduled arrival at the destination regardless of when a claim actually accrues.
