Delta Air Lines Flight 4819 crashed and flipped over during the landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport. 76 passengers were there on board and 21 of them were injured. The Airlines company is now offering them $30,000 each.
‘No strings attached’ and Delta Airlines is willing to pay $30,000 to each passenger which costs approximately $2.3 million in total if all passengers accept the offer. It is not clear when and how passengers will be able to receive the compensation for the flight.
Passengers who accept Delta’s payment should receive the money shortly after agreeing, according to Thomas A. Demetrio, co-founding partner of the law firm Corboy & Demetrio, which specializes in plaintiffs’ personal injury, commercial litigation as well as aviation litigation.
However, Delta’s offer will probably not discourage the passengers on Flight 4819 who want to file a lawsuit following the incident.
An international treaty known as the Montreal Convention covers cases that occur on international itineraries. Under the treaty, passengers who are injured on international flights can be compensated up to $200,000 as long as they can prove that an accident happened, even in cases when the airline was not negligent.
Passengers have two years to file a lawsuit.
