    IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF PENNSYLVANIA SANGMI LEE, : : CIVIL ACTION Plaintiff, : v. : : NO. 15-2666 AMR CORPORATION, aka/dba : AMERICAN AIRLINES, : : Defendant. : MEMORANDUM BUCKWALTER, S. J. June 18, 2015 Currently pending before the Court is Plaintiff Sangmi Lee’s Motion to Remand. For the following reasons, the Motion is denied. I. FACTUAL BACKGROUND According to Plaintiff’s Statement of Claim filed with the Philadelphia Municipal Court: Plaintiff, Sangmi LEE, purchased a ticket in Philadelphia on American Airlines, departing from the United States to Ladyville, Belize. Employees of American Airlines refused to allow Ms. Lee to board her plane, based on a misinterpretation of the immigration laws of Belize, resulting in Ms. Lee missing her flight to Belize and forcing her to take a flight to Guatemala, instead. Based on Defendant American Airlines [sic] failure to allow Ms. Lee to board her flight to Belize, she was forced to incur expenses in the amount of five thousand three hundred sixty one dollars and seventy six cents ($ 5361.76). These expenses were only necessary based on the failure of American Airlines employees to allow Ms. Lee to board her plane as arranged. Plaintiff has made every possible effort to resolve the matter with American Airlines only to be ignored and misled further. WHEREFORE, Plaintiff demands judgement [sic] in the amount of $5361.76, plus costs and attorney’s fees, and any other relief this Court deems necessary and just. (Def.’s Mot. to Remand, Ex. A.) On April 17, 2015, Plaintiff sued Defendant AMR Corporation aka/dba American Airlines (“AMR”) in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, Municipal Court (Civil) for financial damages.

  • The Contribution of Global Alliances to Airlines' Environmental Performance
    sustainability Article The Contribution of Global Alliances to Airlines’ Environmental Performance Belén Payán-Sánchez , Miguel Pérez-Valls * and José Antonio Plaza-Úbeda Economics and Business Department, University of Almería, Ctra. Sacramento s/n, La Cañada de San Urbano, 04120 Almería, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 27 June 2019; Accepted: 22 August 2019; Published: 24 August 2019 Abstract: Global alliances have traditionally been related to improvements in the economic and operational performances of companies, particularly in the airline industry. However, we still do not know the effect of the participation in this kind of multilateral agreement on the environmental performance of airlines. The main aim of this work is to analyze whether the alliance membership of airlines has an effect upon their environmental performance, and if so, whether or not the characteristics of the global alliance, as well as the business model of the airline, may influence this relation to a greater or lesser extent. The results of regression and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) in a sample of 252 airlines (58 included in one of the three global alliances: Star Alliance, Oneworld, and SkyTeam) show a strong and inverse relationship between environmental performance and belonging to an alliance. The paper also shows empirical evidence of the influence of the business model of the airline on environmental performance. These results suggest important implications for managers facing challenges regarding sustainability. Keywords: global alliances; sustainability; environmental performance; airlines; aviation 1. Introduction The aviation sector is the fastest-growing source of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide [1]. Many authors and corporations, such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA), agree that environmental sustainability may be achieved through external pressure with the imposition and accomplishment of different policies, regulations, taxations and other fiscal instruments [2–6].

IN-FLIGHT CRIMES, THE TOKYO CONVENTION, AND FEDERAL JUDICIAL JURISDICTION By JACOB M. DENAROt I. INTRODUCTION A T TOKYO in 1963, a specialized agency of the United Nations 1 drafted a convention directed against offenses committed on board aircraft. The United States is signatory to that convention; but neither that sovereign nor a requisite number of States necessary to effectuate the document have as yet ratified the Tokyo Convention. Whether the Conven- tion should be ratified is a matter seriously being considered by the United States Government. The decision is dependent on two vital factors. First, it depends upon the ability of the Convention to respond to serious de- ficiencies presently existent in international criminal air law. Second, it depends upon the capacity of federal law to complement the Convention in areas which are intrinsically related to the subject matter of that docu- ment but which are, because of their inherently domestic nature, inappro- priate areas for a multilateral treaty.
