Delta Air Lines is offering passengers who were on the Toronto-bound flight that crash-landed and flipped upside down $30,000 apiece. It was not immediately clear how passengers can claim their money, but if all 76 passengers take Delta up on its offer, it will have to fork over nearly $2.3 million in total.

Delta Care Team representatives are telling customers that the offer "has no strings attached and does not affect rights," a Delta spokesperson said.

Delta Flight 4819, which was arriving at Toronto Pearson International Airport from Minneapolis, burst into flames upon landing and flipped upside down on the runway at around 2:15 p.m. Monday.

The CRJ-900 was carrying 76 passengers and four crew members who were left dangling from their seat belts when the smoking plane came to a stop.
