the time within which the bills are payable, and any charges for late payment. (2) Credit on joint transportation. Notwithstanding § 221.10(a), a tariff issued by a carrier may include provisions under which the issuing carrier offers to extend credit for rates, fares or charges to be collected by the issuing carrier and which are applicable to through transportation performed by the issuing carrier in conjunction with connecting carriers regardless of whether such transportation is subject to a through joint fare or rate or a combination of separately established fares or rates of the respective carriers. Simllarly, a tariff issued by an agent may include provisions for account of an individual participating carrier under which such carrier offers to extend credit for rates, fares or charges to be collected by such carrier and which are applicable to through transportation performed by such carrier in conjunction with connecting carriers regardless of whether such transportation is subject to a through joint fare or rate or a combination of separately established fares or rates of the respective carriers.

(j) Notice of limitation of liability for death or injury under the Warsaw Convention. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (h) of this section, each air carrier and foreign air carrier shall publish in its tariffs a provision stating whether it avails itself of the limitation on liability to passengers as provided in Article 22(1) of the Warsaw Convention or whether it has elected to agree to a higher limit of liability by a tariff provision. Unless the carrier elects to assume unlimited liability, its tariffs shall contain a statement as to the applicability and effect of the Warsaw Convention, including the amount of the liability limit in dollars. Where applicable, a statement advising passengers of the amount of any higher limit of liability assumed by the carrier shall be added.

(k) Individual carrier provisions governing joint rates or fares. Provisions governing joint rates or fares may be published for account of an individual carrier participating in such joint rates or fares provided that the tariff clearly indicates how such individual carrier's provisions apply to the through transportation over the applicable joint routes comprised of such carrier and other carriers who either do not maintain such provisions or who maintain different provisions on the same subject matter.

(a) Classification ratings. Each tariff containing class rates shall list all articles or commodities accepted for transportation together with their applicable ratings in the following manner:

(1) The articles or commodities on which the ratings apply shall be described and listed in an orderly manner, and opposite each article or commodity there shall be shown the class rating applicable to the respective article or commodity.

(2) The articles or commodities shall be listed alphabetically in one sequence throughout the section of class ratings to the greatest extent that is practicable. A group of articles or commodities may be published under a generic commodity heading provided that the generic heading appears in its proper alphabetical sequence in the section of class ratings and that the articles or commodities in such group are listed alphabetically and indented under such generic heading.

(3) The class ratings assigned to the articles or commodities shall be numbered classes corresponding identically to the numbered classes for which class rates are provided. (See § 221.73 (c) describing rates on numbered classes.)

(4) Each commodity description and its applicable class rating shall be published in a separate, numbered item. The items shall be shown in numerical order in sequence with other item numbers as may be used in the tariff.

(5) An item shall not state that the rating on any article or commodity will be that applying on another article or commodity, for example, an item shall not provide that "paper wrappers" will take "wrapping paper" ratings. (If “paper wrappers" are to take the same rating as "wrapping paper", such rating shall be shown in the item listing "paper wrappers".)

(6) The publication of class ratings which duplicate or conflict with other class ratings is hereby prohibited. Also, class ratings shall not take precedence over other class ratings (except as provided in paragraph (c) of this section).

(7) The following format is suggested for the publication of classification ratings in the tariff containing the class rates, but may be adjusted to conform

(b) Classification ratings in governing tariff. The classification of articles required by paragraph (a) of this section may be omitted from the rate tariff provided that it is published in its entirety in a separate classification tariff in accordance with §§ 221.100, 221.101, and 221.105.

(c) Exceptions to governing classification ratings. When the classification ratings are published in a separate classification tariff as provided under paragraph (b) of this section and it is found necessary to publish ratings which are exceptions to such classification ratings without canceling the classification ratings, this part of the class rates tariff shall contain the ratings which are exceptions to the ratings in the governing classification tariff. Such exception ratings shall be published in compliance with the following requirements:

(1) The exceptions ratings shall comply with paragraph (a) (1) through (7) of this section, except that the heading reading "Classification Ratings" in subparagraph (7) shall be changed to read substantially "Exceptions to Ratings in Governing Classification."

(2) Exceptions ratings shall be exceptions, in fact, to ratings in the governing classification and shall not be published to cover commodities for which no ratings are provided in the governing classification.

(3) Exceptions ratings restricted to apply from and to or between a small number of points shall not be published to avoid the publication of specific commodity rates from and to or between such points.

(4) The descriptions of the commodities on which the exceptions ratings apply shall conform as closely as possible to the commodity descriptions in the governing classification tariff.

§ 221.40 Statement of fares or rates for air transportation.

The statement of fares for the air transportation of persons shall be prepared in accordance with the provisions of Subpart E. The statement of rates for the air transportation of property

routes over which each fare or rate applies shall be stated in the tariff in such manner that the following information can be definitely ascertained from the tariff:

(1) The carrier or carriers performing the transportation,

(2) The point or points of interchange between carriers if the route is a joint route (via two or more carriers),

(3) The intermediate points served on the carrier's or carriers' routes applicable between the origin and destination of the rate or fare and the order in which such intermediate points are served. (This information, however, is not required in those property tariffs which are not subject to rules or other provisions for stopping in transit or to any other provisions which require determining what intermediate points are served via the tariff routing between the origin point and destination point of a rate; nor is it required in passenger tariffs of carriers whose operations are other than over defined routes stated in certificates or permits issued by the Board; nor in charter tariffs.) On an experimental basis, for the purposes of complying with this paragraph, tariffs may include for each carrier a separate map of the carrier's routes, showing intermediate points in the order served.

(b) Individually stated routings—(1) Method of publication. Except as otherwise authorized in paragraphs (c) and (d) of this section, the routing required by paragraph (a) of this section shall be shown directly in connection with each fare, rate or charge for transportation, or in a routing portion of the tariff (following the rate or fare portion of the tariff), or in a governing routing tariff. When shown in the routing portion of the tariff or in a governing routing tariff, the fare or rate from each point of origin to each point of destination shall bear a routing number and the corresponding routing numbers with their respective explanations of the applicable routings shall be arranged in numerical order in the routing portion of the tariff or in the governing routing tariff.

(2) Class of passenger service and aircraft type specified in routing. Where a passenger fare applies via one class of service (or type of aircraft) over a portion of the routing applicable from origin

to destination and via a different class or classes of service (or a different type or types of aircraft) over the remainder of the routing, provisions as to the classes of services (or types of aircraft) provided over the respective segments of the routing may be included in the applicable routing published in accordance with subparagraph (1) of this paragraph. When routings containing such provisions are published in a separate routing section of the tariff or in a governing routing tariff, the headings of the pages containing fares subject to such routings shall indicate that provisions as to class of service or type of aircraft are set forth in the routing.

(c) Diagrammatic routings. For property rates between United States points, on the one hand, and points in foreign countries or United States Territories or Possessions, on the other hand, the routing information required by paragraphs (a) (1) and (2) of this section may be shown in the form of routing diagrams. A routing diagram consists of a series of connected columns or rectangular figures, each naming or designating a group of points, with carrier routing designated between each pair of consecutive, connected groups, and an explanation of how to use the diagram in determining applicable routings. An illustration of an acceptable form of routing diagram is set forth in Illustration No. 1 at the end of this paragraph. Publication of routing diagrams shall conform to the following requirements:

(1) Each routing diagram shall bear a routing number. Only connected groups shall be included in one diagram.

(2) Routing diagrams shall be published in numerical order, by routing number, in the routing portion of the tariff following the rate portion or in a governing routing tariff.

(3) The pages containing the rates shall refer, by routing number, to the applicable routing diagrams. Where all rates in a tariff, table or section are subject to one routing diagram, such reference may be shown in the heading of each rate page thereof. Otherwise, reference to the applicable routing diagrams shall be shown directly in connection with the respective rates from each origin to each destination.

(4) An explanation of the application and use of each routing diagram shall be published in connection therewith in sufficient detail to enable the applicable routings to be definitely determined.

(5) Groups of points of origin, destination and interchange shall be designated in the diagram by definite geographic terms.

(6) The carriers performing the transportation between each pair of consecutive, connected groups of points in the diagram shall be specifically designated in the routing diagram except that where space limitations make this impractical, such carrier routing may be published in the following manner:

(i) Except as otherwise authorized in subdivision (ii) of this subparagraph, the routing between two consecutive, connected groups in the diagram may be shown by referring to a routing chart conforming to the following requirements. Routing charts shall be in tabular form showing the specific points in one group as headline points and the specific points in the other group as sideline points. Headline points shall be arranged alphabetically and the sideline points shall be arranged alphabetically under the respective headline points. Carrier routing between each headline point and each sideline point shall be shown in the intersecting space in the tabular chart. An illustration of such routing chart (using abbreviations to designate carriers) is set forth in Illustration No. 2 at the end of this paragraph.

(ii) Carrier routing between two consecutive, connected groups consisting exclusively of foreign points may be shown either by a routing chart authorized under subdivision (i) of this subparagraph or in the following manner. The routing diagram may provide that carrier routing between such groups of foreign points shall be via any singlecarrier service and shall refer to the tariff's alphabetical index or list of points of origin and destination to determine the carriers serving the respective points in each group. The latter method of publication may be used only where the tariff contains an alphabetical index or list of points of origin and destination showing the carriers serving the respective points, and only where each carrier indicated by such index or list as serving a pair of points (one in each such group) does in fact maintain service between such pair of points.

(d) Open routing. In lieu of showing the routing information required by paragraphs (a) (1) and (2) in the manner prescribed by paragraph (b) or (c) of this section, a property rate tariff may contain a rule reading as follows:

ROUTING

Unless otherwise provided in routing exceptions shown in connection with the transportation rates or charges, the transportation rates or charges in this tariff will apply only via the following routing:

Local routing. Each transportation rate or charge will apply locally (via a single carrier) from the point of origin to the point of destination via any single carrier which is shown in this tariff as serving both such points. (See Note.)

Joint routing. Each transportation rate or charge will apply jointly (via two or more successive carriers) from the point of origin to the point of destination via any carriers and via any points of interchange between such carriers provided that the initial carrier is shown in this tariff as serving both the point of origin and the point of interchange with the next connecting carrier and that each successive connecting carrier is shown in this tariff as serving both the point of interchange at which it receives the shipment and the point of interchange or destination to which it transports the shipment. (See Note.)

Note: To determine the carriers serving each point of origin, destination and interchange, see the Index of Points of Origin and Destination in this tariff.

The above rule is referred to hereinafter as "the open routing rule" and its publication is subject to the following requirements and conditions:

(1) The open routing rule may be published only in a rate tariff containing an index of points, captioned "Index of Points of Origin and Destination", complying with § 221.37 (a) or (d). The following provision, making reference to the open routing rule, shall be shown in the heading of such index on each page thereof:

Points listed below are also points of interchange for the purpose of determining routing under Rule

---

(2) The following provision, making reference to the open routing rule, shall be shown in the heading of the statement of rates on each page thereof:

Rates and charges below apply only via routing authorized by Rule unless otherwise provided in the Routing Exceptions to which the rates or charges below are subject.

(3) All exceptions to the open routing rule shall be set forth as "Routing Exceptions" either directly in connection with the respective rates to which they apply or in a separate routing exception portion of the same tariff (following the rate portion). When such routing ex

ceptions are set forth in a routing exception portion of the tariff, the rate from each origin to each destination, to which a routing exception is applicable, shall bear a routing exception number and the corresponding routing exception numbers (with their respective statements of the applicable routing exceptions) shall be arranged in numerical order in the routing exception portion of the tariff.

(4) Each exception to the open routing rule shall be clear, explicit and definite in its terms and shall be clear as to the extent to which it removes the application of the open routing rule.

(5) If the tariff names only local rates, the paragraph captioned "Joint Routing" shall be omitted from the open routing rule in such tariff. If the tariff names only joint rates, the paragraph captioned "Local Routing" shall be omitted from the open routing rule in such tariff.

(6) Publication of the open routing rule and routing exceptions under 221.41(d) is an alternative to publishing the routing information required by § 221.41(a) (1) and (2) in the manner prescribed by § 221.41 (b) or (c), and § 221.41(d) does not authorize departure from any other provisions of Part 221.

(7) The open routing rule shall not be published in a tariff containing rates which are subject to provisions for stopping in transit at intermediate points or to any other provisions which require determining the intermediate points between the origin point and the destination point of a rate.

(8) Section 221.41(d) expires with September 20, 1966 unless sooner canceled, changed or extended. All tariffs containing the open routing rule shall contain the above expiration date.

(e) Emergency routing rule. If desired, the following routing rule may be published in property rate tariffs conforming with paragraph (b) or (c) of this section:

Routing instructions. The rates named in this tariff will apply only over the routes and via interchange points authorized herein except that when, in the case of pronounced traffic congestion (not an embargo) or other similar emergency, or through carrier's error, carriers forward shipments by other transfer points of the same carriers or over other carriers parties to the tariff, the rates specified in this tariff (but not higher than the rate applicable over the actual route of movement) will be applied.
