3.1.1
The Ticket constitutes prima facie evidence of the contract of carriage between CAL and the Passenger named on the Ticket. CAL will provide carriage only to the Passenger holding such Ticket, or holding, as proof of payment or part payment, any other document issued by CAL or its Authorised Agent. The Ticket is and remains at all times the property of the issuing Carrier. The conditions of contract contained in the Ticket are a summary of some of the provisions of these Conditions of Carriage.
3.1.2 Requirement for Ticket and Identification
Except in the case of an Electronic Ticket, a person shall not be entitled to be carried on a flight unless that person provides appropriate identification and presents a Ticket valid and duly issued in accordance with these Conditions of Carriage and/or Carrier's Regulations and containing the Flight Coupon for that flight and all other unused Flight Coupons and the Passenger Coupon. A Passenger shall furthermore not be entitled to be carried if the Ticket presented is mutilated or if it has been altered otherwise than by Carrier or its Authorised Agent. In the case of an Electronic Ticket, a person shall not be entitled to be carried on a flight unless that person provides appropriate identification and has an Electronic Ticket that is valid and duly issued in accordance with these Conditions of Carriage and/or Carrier's Regulations and contained in Carrier's database.
3.1.3 Loss, etc. of Ticket
In case of loss or mutilation of a Ticket, or part thereof, or non-presentation of a Ticket containing the Passenger Coupon and all unused Flight Coupons, CAL or the issuing Carrier may at the Passenger's request and subject to Carrier's Regulations, replace such Ticket or part thereof by issuing a new Ticket on receipt of proof satisfactory that a Ticket valid for the flights in question was duly issued, provided that the Passenger undertakes in such form as may be prescribed by CAL or the issuing Carrier to pay any costs and losses reasonably incurred resulting from the misuse of the Ticket. The Passenger may be required to pay up to the Fare applicable to the new Ticket. In the event, and to the extent, that the lost or missing Ticket or the missing Flight Coupons are used by any person within the period of validity of the Ticket, or that refund in respect thereof is made to any person. CAL or the issuing Carrier may charge a service fee for this service, as set out in Carrier's Regulations, unless the loss or mutilation was due to the negligence of CAL or the issuing Carrier.
3.1.4 Ticket not transferable
A Ticket is not transferable. If a Ticket is presented by someone other than the person entitled to be carried, CAL will refuse to carry that person. However, if someone other than the person entitled to be carried on a Ticket presents or travels pursuant to that Ticket or is given a refund in connection therewith, CAL shall not be liable to the person so entitled if in good faith it provides carriage, or makes a refund.
3.2 Period of Validity

c) fails to operate a flight reasonably according to schedule; or
d) causes the Passenger to miss a connection; or

3.2.3
When a Passenger, after having commenced his or her journey, is prevented from travelling within the period of validity of the Ticket by reason of illness, CAL will may extend, (provided such extension is not precluded by Carrier's Regulations applicable to the Fare paid by the Passenger) the period of validity of such Passenger's Ticket until the date when the Passenger becomes fit to travel according to a medical certificate, or until CAL's first flight after such date from the point where the journey is resumed on which space is available in the class of service for which the Fare has been paid. When the flight coupons remaining in the Ticket, or in the case of an Electronic Ticket, the Electronic Coupon, involve one or more Stopover, the validity of such Ticket, subject to Carrier's Regulations, will be extended for not more than three (3) months from the date shown on such certificate. Notwithstanding the above, when the Fare paid is a special Fare with validity shorter than that of normal Fare, the validity of such Ticket will be extended for not more than seven (7) DAYS. In such circumstances, CAL will extend similarly the period of validity of Tickets of other members of the Passenger's immediate family accompanying an incapacitated Passenger.
3.2.4
In the event of death of a Passenger en route, the Tickets of the persons accompanying the Passenger may be modified by waiving the minimum stay or extending the validity. In the event of a death in the immediate family of a Passenger who has commenced travel, the validity of the Passenger's Tickets and those of his or her immediate family accompanying the Passenger may be likewise modified. Any such modification shall be made upon receipt of a proper death certificate and any such extension of validity shall not be for a period longer than forty-five (45) DAYS from the date of the death.

3.3.1
CAL will honour Flight Coupons, or in the case of an Electronic Ticket, an Electronic Coupon, only in sequence from the initial place of departure as shown on the Ticket.

Where the carriage is not subject to the Montreal Convention, CAL may not be held liable for Damage to Passengers or Baggage if CAL proves that it or its servants or agents have taken all necessary measures to avoid the damage or it that it was impossible for CAL or its agents to take such measures.
16.7.2
If CAL issues a Ticket for the Passenger to be carried on another Carrier or checks-in Baggage for carriage on another Carrier, CAL does so only as agent for that Carrier.
For carriage subject to the Montreal Convention:
For carriage subject to the Montreal Convention:
16.7.2.1
If the Passenger has a claim in respect of Checked Baggage, the Passenger may claim against the first or last Carrier, or against Carrier performing the carriage during which the damage took place. However, the liability of each Carrier involved in the Passenger's journey must be determined by each Carrier's own Conditions of Carriage.
16.7.2.2
If CAL issues a Ticket to the Passenger under a code share agreement, as set out in Article 2.2, where 'China Airlines' or the Airline Designated Code 'CI' is shown as the carrier on the Ticket, or any other arrangements whereby CAL acts as a contracting Carrier rather than as an operating Carrier or as an agent for the operating Carrier, CAL or the operating Carrier will have a legal liability under the Convention to the Passenger in relation to his or her carriage by air.
16.7.3
CAL is not liable for any damage arising from the fact that CAL has complied with laws or government rules and regulations or the Passenger has not obeyed laws or government rules and regulations:
16.7.4
Except where these Conditions of Carriage say differently, CAL is liable to the Passenger only for compensatory damages which the Passenger is entitled to recover for proven losses and costs under the Convention.
16.7.5
CAL's contract of carriage with the Passenger (including these Conditions of Carriage, Carrier's Regulations and exclusions or limits of liability) applies to CAL's agents, servants, employees and representatives in the same way as it applies to CAL. As a result, the total amount the Passenger can recover from CAL and CAL's agents, servants, employees and representatives will not be more than the total amount of CAL's own liability, if any.
16.7.6
Unless CAL says otherwise, nothing in these Conditions of Carriage gives up any exclusion or limitation of liability to which CAL is entitled under the Convention or any laws which may apply.
16.7.7
Nothing in these Conditions of Carriage prevents CAL from excluding or limiting CAL's liability under the Convention or any laws which apply, or, gives up any defence available to CAL under the Convention or any laws which apply against any third party who has paid, compensation for the death, wounding or other bodily injury of a Passenger.
Article 17 TIME LIMITS FOR BAGGAGE COMPLAINTS
17.1
If the Passenger receives Baggage without making a complaint, it will be sufficient evidence that it was delivered in good condition and according to the contract of carriage, unless the Passenger proves otherwise.
17.2
Complaints about damage to Checked Baggage must be made in writing to CAL within seven (7) DAYS of receiving the Baggage.
17.3
Complaints about delay to Checked Baggage must be made in writing to CAL within twenty (21) DAYS of the Baggage being made available to the Passenger.
Article 18 LIMITATION OF ACTIONS
Any right to damages shall be extinguished if an action is not brought within two (2) years reckoned from the date of arrival at the destination, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived, or from the date on which the carriage stopped or in accordance with the national law of the court seized of the case. The method of calculating the period of limitation shall be determined by the law of the court seized of the case.
Article 19 MODIFICATION AND WAIVER
No agent, employee or representative of CAL has authority to alter, modify or waive any provision of these Conditions of Carriage.
