Delta Offers Compensation to Passengers of Overturned Plane in Toronto – The Amount Sparks Discussions

Delta Air Lines’ compensation offer to passengers of the recent Toronto crash has sparked mixed reactions. After USA Today reported that Delta would provide each passenger $30,000, social media quickly filled with debates. The airline clarified that the payment would not affect passengers’ legal rights and came with no conditions.

Some passengers felt relieved that everyone survived and considered the compensation a generous gesture. Others joked about the offer, with one Reddit user quipping, “How do I volunteer to survive a plane crash and get paid?” However, many criticized the amount, saying it was insufficient for the trauma endured. One Facebook commenter argued, “Too little for that much trauma. PTSD, never flying again, imagine yourself in that moment.” Another suggested a larger package, such as $100,000 or free flights forever.

Critics also questioned whether the payment was an attempt to prevent lawsuits. One netizen pointed out that $30,000 per person was far less than the potential cost of multiple lawsuits.

The crash occurred when a Bombardier CRJ900, operated by Endeavor Air, flipped onto its roof while landing at Toronto Pearson. Thankfully, all 76 passengers and four crew members survived, though 18 were injured. Investigations are ongoing. Survivors have shared their harrowing experiences, with many describing selfless acts of bravery among passengers. The debate over the compensation continues as the crash investigation unfolds.
