    Trinidad and Tobago United Cultural Association, Inc., Respondent, v. Vista Travel Service, Inc., Defendant, and British West Indian Airways et al., Appellants.
    Supreme Court, Appellate Term, First Department,
    April 20, 1967.
    
      Condon & Forsyth (William C. Clarke, III, of counsel), for appellants. Frederick E. Samuel for respondent.
   Per Curiam.

The oral contract relied upon by plaintiff is inconsistent with the provisions of the carrier’s tariff schedule filed pursuant to the provisions of section 403 of the Federal Aviation Act (U. S. Code, tit. 49‘, § 1373) and is invalid and unenforcihle (New York & Honduras Rosario Mining Co. v. Riddle Airlines, 3 A D 2d 457 [1st Dept., 1957], affd. 4 N Y 2d 755). Estoppel cannot be invoked against a common carrier to avoid a tariff provision (United States v. Associated Air Transport, 275 F. 2d 827, 832-833).

The order should be reversed, with $10 costs, and motion granted.

Concur — Gold, J. P., Hecht, Jr., and Hofstadter, JJ.

Order reversed, etc.
