Are the Hamburg Rules the international standard for air waybill conditions?

The Hamburg Rules do not serve as the international standard for air waybill conditions; instead, they specifically govern the international carriage of goods by sea. This set of rules was established to address maritime transport and clarify the rights and obligations of carriers and shippers in that context.

For air transport, the relevant international agreements are the Warsaw Convention and its amendments, along with the Montreal Convention, which outline the liability of air carriers, as well as the conditions applicable to air shipments. Therefore, selecting an answer indicating that the Hamburg Rules are not applicable to air waybills is accurate, as they are fundamentally oriented towards maritime transport and not the regulatory framework for airborne shipments.

The other choices do not correctly identify the scope of the Hamburg Rules, as they are not related to cargo insurance or ocean transport exclusively, nor do they pertain to air transport conditions, which is why they do not apply in this scenario.
