Last Toronto Plane Crash Survivor Released From Hospital

The final passenger who was hospitalized following Monday's crash involving a Delta Air Lines connection flight at Toronto Pearson International Airport in Ontario, Canada has been released.

On Thursday, the airline confirmed that all 21 injured passengers who were initially transported to local hospitals after Endeavor Air Flight 4819 overturned and caught fire during a snowy landing have been discharged.

"The Delta and Endeavor families are grateful that all those injured Monday have been released from the hospital, and we extend our thanks to everyone who provided care to them over the past few days," Delta CEO Ed Bastian said in a statement.

"We will continue to connect one-on-one with customers, employees and loved ones as we move forward to make sure their needs are met with care."

All 80 people aboard the flight—including 76 passengers and four crew members—survived the crash-landing, with those injured sustaining non-life-threatening injuries.

Delta has since said it will compensate each traveler with $30,000 with "no strings attached."

The Transportation Safety Board of Canada is investigating the accident with help from the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board and representatives from Delta and Endeavor.
