Air France to pay for crash death
7 January 2011Air France has been ordered by a Brazilian court to pay 540,000 euros to the relatives of a Brazilian family that died on a flight from Rio to Paris in June last year.
The mother of 31 year old Luciana Clarkson Seba will receive 2,300 euros a month as compensation to the suffering she experienced after she lost her daughter and son in law in the crash.
This case likely paves the way for legal claims by the families of the other 228 passengers and crew who died on the flight.
The airline said the carrier’s insurer would pay the compensation fees.
