Using content analysis, through a descriptive documentary research and jurisprudence analysis, this study aims at identifying both the content of the obligation of complying the itinerary established in the contract or the usages that derive from, and particular aspects of this obligation which modifies the original terms of the carriage contract. Also, the paper discusses the texts of the New Civil Code and the Budapest Convention on the carriage contract on inland waterways.
