Delta Offers $30K Compensation to Toronto Crash Passengers

Delta Air Lines is providing a $30,000 compensation to each passenger aboard Flight 4819, which crashed upon landing at Toronto Pearson International Airport. All 80 people on board survived, though over 20 sustained injuries, with 21 needing hospital care initially. Delta emphasized that the compensation is a gesture with 'no strings attached,' ensuring it does not waive passengers' rights to pursue further claims. The accident is under investigation by Canadian and U.S. authorities, as the aircraft flipped over and caught fire during landing. Delta CEO Ed Bastian noted that the flight was operated by an experienced crew, and praised emergency responders for their swift actions. Passengers have begun consulting legal representation, indicating potential for further legal action despite the compensation offer.
