Yes, because they died in the line of duty! But no matter how much compensation they receive, it can't save their lives! The airline's compensation limit for each person is 400,000 yuan, but this was a regulation 16 years ago, and the actual compensation will be higher than this. The company also bought the captain and stewardess five insurances and one housing fund for them, including work-related injury insurance, and the compensation amount of this insurance is higher than that of passengers.
So how much compensation will be paid to passengers and flight staff? Let me reveal the secrets to you:
First of all, the first one is the compensation from the aerospace company. The Civil Aviation Administration of China has clear regulations! If passengers and crew members on a plane die during the flight, the airline must compensate them in accordance with regulations. Here are some examples.
In 1992, the maximum compensation limit was 5,000 yuan;
In 1993, the maximum compensation limit was 70,000 yuan;
In 2006, the maximum compensation limit was 40 Ten thousand yuan;
So according to the regulations promulgated in 2006, airlines, as carriers, need to pay compensation of 400,000 yuan to each passenger. Obviously, 16 years have passed and prices have risen so much that this compensation amount is already too low.
Let’s list a few other air disasters in our country’s history and the amount of compensation airlines paid to passengers.
In the 2004 Baotou air crash, each person was compensated 211,000 yuan;
In the 2010 Yichun air crash, each person was compensated 960,000 yuan;
In 2014, Malaysia Airlines In the event of a plane crash, each person will be compensated 1.5 million yuan.
Moreover, most of the family members who received compensation in the 2014 Malaysia Airlines crash felt that the compensation was too small. What's more, with prices soaring now, 400,000 yuan simply doesn't meet the compensation standard, so some experts have suggested raising the compensation standard to 1 million yuan.
The second is the compensation from the insurance company
If the passenger who died purchased the 30-yuan aviation accident comprehensive insurance of China Eastern Airlines when buying the flight ticket, he would receive the limit. The compensation amount is 2 million. The captain and stewardess have labor contracts with the company, and the company also buys them five insurances and one housing fund, including work-related injury insurance, and the compensation amount of this insurance is higher than that of passengers.
The third one is the work-related death compensation received by the captain and flight attendant who died in the line of duty.
Because the captain and flight attendant were staff members on the aircraft, their casualties were considered work-related deaths. According to the "Work-related Injury Insurance Regulations", their family members will receive three types of compensation:
The first, funeral subsidy: the compensation amount is 6 months' average monthly salary of employees in the region in the previous year; If the average salary is 8,000, one *** can get more than 50,000.
The second item, dependent relative pension: The elderly and children can receive 30% each month. Spouses can also receive 30% every month.
The third item is a one-time 20-year subsidy: its standard is based on last year’s per capita income of 47,412 multiplied by 20 times. One *** is 948,240 yuan. Funeral expense compensation, pension, plus a one-time 20-year subsidy. In total, it's almost a million. Therefore, the families of captains and flight attendants can receive at least 1 million yuan.
Fourth, commercial insurance
Because working on an airplane is a high-risk job, many people who work on airplanes will buy themselves a commercial insurance, such as life insurance and accident insurance. risk. Although the premiums of these insurances will be very expensive, the insured amount is more than one million! Conclusion: The accident has happened. We cannot keep grieving in the past. We should look forward to it and may the deceased rest in peace.
