Final rule.

In accordance with the provisions of 14 CFR 254.6, this final rule revises the minimum limit on domestic baggage liability applicable to air carriers to reflect inflation since December 1999, the date of the most recent revision to the rule. Section 254.6 requires that the Department revise periodically the limit to reflect any changes in the Consumer Price Index during the interim. The rule adjusts the minimum limit of liability from the current amount of $2,500 to $2,800, taking into account the changes in price level over a period of approximately four years.
