Every complaint must be in writing and dispatched within the time aforesaid.

JAL had knowledge of the damage to the Passenger's Baggage.

(B) Time Limitation on Claims and Actions for Cargo

(1)
 
(a)
Receipt by the person entitled to delivery of the cargo without complaint shall be prima facie evidence that the same has been delivered in good condition and in accordance with the contract of carriage.
(b)
No action shall be maintained in the case of destruction of or damage to the cargo unless a written notice, sufficiently describing the cargo concerned, the approximate date of the destruction or damage and the details of the claim, is presented to an office of JAL within 14 days from the date of receipt thereof, in the case of delay unless presented within 21 days from the date the cargo is place at the disposal of the person entitled to delivery of the shipment, and in the case of loss (including nondelivery) unless presented within 120 days from the date of issuance of the air waybill.

All claims other than provided in (b) above except any claims relating to personal injury or death, must be made in writing within 270 days from the date of issuance of the air waybill.

The invalidity of any provision shall not affect any other provision.
