H.R. 8579 — To direct the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration to issue regulations to include strollers in the contract of carriage of air carriers and set a liability limit for damaged strollers, and for other purposes.

This section directs the Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration to issue regulations within 180 days of enactment amending 14 CFR part 253 to require air carriers to include strollers in their contracts of carriage and to tag each stroller with a notation that it must be handled with care, with such updates required to be consistent with the Montreal Convention. This section also directs the Administrator to amend 14 CFR 254.4 to set the liability amount for damage to a stroller at $2,175 within the overall baggage liability limit. The term “stroller” is defined as a collapsible carriage designed as a chair in which a small child may be pushed, including any other device used to hold children on the move.
