ABSTRACT: In recent years, air crashes have occurred frequently, so the resulting compensation issues are extremely complex. Air crash compensation is mainly involved with the amount of compensation, application of law and jurisdiction, including domestic law and private international law. The provisions on it are different in different countries. How to protect the air crash victims’ rights effectively is always a difficult problem in the research of scholars of all countries. In this paper, combining with the typical air crash cases, the author puts forward the problems in the private international law and gives some suggestions to further improve the legislation of private international law.
