Mysterious circumstances shroud the legal proceedings following the Toronto plane crash as the details of the lawsuit remain elusive. The international treaty governing compensation for passengers injured in such incidents stipulates a maximum payout of $200,000, but this amount could increase if the airline is deemed at fault. Passengers are granted a two-year window to file a lawsuit under the terms of the treaty.
In the aftermath of the crash landing involving a flight originating from Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, twenty-one individuals were hospitalized. However, Delta CEO Ed Bastian confirmed on Thursday that all the injured parties have since been discharged from medical care. Delta’s offer of $30,000 per passenger affected by the flight mishap was portrayed as a goodwill gesture by a spokesperson from the Delta Care Team, emphasizing that the offer carries no conditions and does not compromise any legal rights.
Responding to unfounded online speculations regarding the flight crew’s competence, Delta provided additional details about the captain and first officer. Both individuals hold certifications from the Federal Aviation Administration, with the captain boasting experience in pilot training and flight safety roles. The first officer, recruited by Endeavor just last year, possesses the highest-level pilot certification in the United States according to the airline’s statement.
The investigation into the causes behind the flight’s crash remains ongoing, with collaborative efforts from the National Transportation Safety Board, the Federal Aviation Administration, and their Canadian counterparts. Delta officials have refrained from commenting on the impending legal proceedings linked to the incident.
