Certain circumstances can alter the standard two-year window, adding complexity to aviation claims. Wrongful death claims, such as those from a fatal mid-flight collision, have a two-year limit starting from the date of death. Federal regulations governing commercial airline accidents may impose stricter deadlines or require coordination with agencies like the FAA. For minors or incapacitated victims, courts may extend deadlines, but a guardian must act promptly, which can delay the process if not handled efficiently.
