COMMUNICATING WITH FAMILIES

The Airline will establish a reliable toll-free telephone number dedicated to accident-related calls. The

Airline will promptly publicize this number through local, national and international media after

receiving confirmation that an aircraft operated by the Airline has been involved in an accident and that

there are serious injuries and/or fatalities. The Airline will provide sufficient staff to accept telephone

calls on such number from families of passengers involved in an aircraft accident resulting in a major loss

of life.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

NOTIFICATION OF FAMILIES

Immediately after receiving notice of an accident, the Airline will compile a preliminary passenger list to

determine which passengers were actually boarded on the flight.

. The list and each updated will be distributed internally to the appropriate departments, as well as to

the NTSB Director of Family Support Services and to the organization designated for the accident under

49 U.S.C. Section 1136(a)(2) (currently the American Red Cross), for notification of passenger families.

Such lists will be based on the Airline ́s best available information at the time of the request and will

contain passenger names, whether or not such names have been verified.

As soon as Airline has verified that a passenger was aboard the flight, Airline will initiate the process of

identifying the passenger’s next-of-kin and notifying the family, regardless of whether verification of all

passengers aboard the flight is complete. Either suitably trained individuals at the Airline or the

organization designated for the accident under 49 U.S.C. Section 1136(a)(2) (currently the American Red

Cross) will provide in-person notification to the families to the extent practicable. Airline will also give

the U.S. Department of State the names of all foreign nationals who appear on the verified passenger

list.

Airline will not publicly release the names of any passengers or crew members until the next-of-kin have

first been notified, unless otherwise directed by the NTSB.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

FAMILY TRAVEL TO ACCIDENT SITE

The Airline will assist the family of any passenger in traveling to the location of the accident and provide

for the physical care of the family, while the family is staying at such location.

Airline will also maintain regular contact with families who elect not to travel to the accident site.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

SUFFICIENT RESOURCES

Airline will commit sufficient resources to carry out this plan. Our commitment demands that Airline

work cooperatively with any organization designated pursuant to 49 U.S.C. Section 1136(a)(2) (currently

the American Red Cross) to ensure that families receive an appropriate level of services and assistance

following any such disaster, and the continued safe operation of Airline.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

WORKING WITH, AND COMPENSATION OF, DESIGNATED ORGANIZATIONS

Airline will work with any organization designated under 49 U.S.C. Section 1136(a)(2) (currently the

American Red Cross) on an ongoing basis to ensure that families of passengers receive an appropriate

level of services and assistance following an accident.

In addition, Airline will provide reasonable compensation to any organization designated under 49 U.S.C.

Section 1136 (a)(2) (currently the American Red Cross) for services and assistance provided by that

organization.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

UNIFORM PROVISION OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE: EQUAL TREATMENT

The Airline will provide family assistance on an equal basis, without regard to an individual’s status as a

revenue customer, non-revenue passenger or crew member.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

REMAINS, PERSONAL EFFECTS AND POSSESSIONS

Airline will consult with and honor the family’s reasonable wishes for remains in the control of Airline

that are identified as those of the passenger.

Airline, or its designated representative or subcontractor, will follow the direction of the family as to the

return or other disposition of such items, regardless of their condition, unless they are needed for the

accident investigation or a criminal investigation.

After returning all possessions that can be associated with specific passengers, Airline, or its designated

representatives or subcontractors, will retain any unclaimed possessions that have been released to

Airline’s control for not less than 18 months after the date of the accident.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

MONUMENTS

Airline will consult with the family of each passenger about construction by Airline of any monument to

the passengers built in the United States, including any inscription on the monument.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

TRAINING OF EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS

Airline has provided training and administers additional recurrent training of its employees and agents

to meet the needs of the survivors and family members following the accident.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

CONSULTATION ON CARRIER RESPONSE NOT COVERED BY PLAN

In the event that Airline offers volunteer assistance to United States citizens within the United States

regarding an aircraft accident involving a major loss of life and which occurs outside the United States,

Airline will communicate and consult with the NTSB and the U.S. Department of State on the terms and

provision of Airline’s offered assistance.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

DAMAGE TO MAN MADE STRUCTURES ON THE GROUND

In the event of an accident that results in significant damage to a man-made structure or other property

on the ground that is not government-owned, Airline will promptly, to the extent practicable, provide

written notice to the owner of the structure or property about the means for obtaining compensation

and, at a minimum, advising the owner (a) to contact the insurer of the structure or property as the

authoritative source for information about insurance coverage and compensation, (b) not to rely on

unofficial information, if any, offered by Airline’s representatives about compensation by Airline for

accident-site property damage and (c) to obtain photographic or other detailed evidence of property

damage as soon as possible after the accident, consistent with any restrictions on access to the accident

site.
362762/1/WASHINGTON

ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF NTSB HEARING

In the event that the National Transportation Safety Board conducts a public hearing or comparable

proceeding regarding an accident and the hearing or comparable proceeding is held at a location greater

than eighty (80) miles from the accident site, Airline will ensure that the hearing or proceeding is made

available simultaneously by electronic means at a location open to the public at both the origin city and

the destination city of the flight, if that city is located in the United States.
