Helicopteros Dominicanos, S.A. is a party to such special contracts for death of or personal injury to passengers is 

limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed US $75,000 per passenger, and that this fiablity up to such limit shall 

not depend on negligence on the part erf the carrier. For such passengers travding by a carier not a party to such special 

contracts or on a journey not to, from, or having an agreed stopping place in the United States of America, liability of the 

carrier for death or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to approximately US $10,000 or US $20,000.
