What is International Air Law?

International Air Law covers the rules that apply to both domestic and international aviation. These rules govern the complex relationship between States, Service Providers and Passengers. The rules also govern the impact of aviation on the environment and on individuals affected by aircraft operations.  It is a very broad subject of relevance to most involved in civil aviation.

So what are these international agreements, and how do they affect your everyday work?
