Abstract
Today codeshare flights are recognized as a proper tool as a routine to operate in international air transportation and are important as an integral part of the operation of an aviation company, which has clear consequences for parties to such agreements. This paper aimed to explain the legal nature of codeshare agreements and to reviewing the legal consequences of such procedure in air transportation agreements. Although a transportation agreement between passenger and aviation company or air travel agency may be subject to the general rules of agreements, the effects of codeshare agreements between two aviation companies become more visible when it comes to, for example, the civil liability arising from plane crashes, which makes it even more necessary to study the nature thereof. Here, it was tried not only to study codeshare agreements, but also to clearly define the concept of contractual carrier and actual carrier and various codeshare agreements; however, finally it was concluded that the analysis of codeshare agreement based on Article 10, Civil Code, was consistent with the legal logic and the realities of the aviation industry.
