Passengers of Delta Air Lines Flight 4819, which crash-landed at Toronto Pearson International Airport, have been offered $30,000 each as a goodwill gesture. The Endeavor Air CRJ900 aircraft has been cleared from Runway 23 following the incident and a period of adverse weather conditions.
On February 17th at 14:13 local time, the plane landed hard and flipped over during its flight from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to Toronto. All 80 passengers and crew survived; however, several individuals were injured, with three sustaining serious injuries.
Delta's spokesperson Morgan Durrant stated that the compensation "has no strings attached and does not affect rights," adding that all fares will be refunded. More than 20 people required hospital treatment but have since been discharged.
