Transportation, shipping and warehousing represent three of the most recurrent contractual figures in commercial practice.<\/p>\n

For this reason, it was decided to devote a single section of the book to each of the three contracts, focusing on those issues of greatest interest because of their topicality and having the consumer as the preferred point of reference.<\/p>\n

In the context of the contract of carriage, the focus was mainly on air transportation and on some cases - quite frequent in practice - of carrier liability: overbooking and denied boarding, lost luggage, flight cancellation and delay. In each of these cases, an attempt has been made to reconstruct, step by step, the procedural procedure to be followed by the user who is the victim of disruption, taking into account the legislation, both Community (in particular, EC Regulation 261\/2004, reported in the educational appendix) and domestic, and without neglecting the most recent directions of jurisprudence (such as, e.g., EC Court of Justice, November 19, 2009, No. 402, on the protection of passengers who are victims of prolonged air delays). The other three chapters of the first section, on the other hand, are devoted to intermodal transport (perimento del mezzo) and road transport (where the practical cases of goods breakdown and cargo damage are addressed), with a special focus on the Convention on the Contract for the International Carriage of Goods by Road (CMR), signed in Geneva on May 19, 1956, and ratified by Italy with l. Dec. 6, 1960, no.1621 (the full text of which, as amended by the Geneva Protocol of July 5, 1978, is given in the normative appendix), and the scope of its applicability.<\/p>\n

Subsequent sections deal with shipping (with the associated problems of late delivery of goods, non-payment of the price to the principal, and cargo theft) and the storage contract, with reference also to storage in general warehouses.<\/p>\n

A separate notation deserves, however, the figure of the so-called \u201cairport handling,\u201d namely that contractual case by which an entrepreneur offers a series of services in the airport context, which are complementary or instrumental to the activity of the air carrier. The discipline of handling is outlined with reference to the elements of contact with warehousing with regard to the custody of cargo and baggage and the liability of the warehouseman.<\/p>\n
