T
he management of Lion Air will refer to the Transportation Minister's Regulation (Permen) No.77/2011 on delay, loss baggage and accident insurance payment as the best criterion for the compensation of baggage lost or damaged as a result of the Boeing 737-800 crash near Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar, Bali, on Saturday.
'For a wait of three days compensation of Rp 600,000 (US$61.8) would be paid, and for lost baggage [Lion Air] would be a maximum of Rp 4 million per passenger as stipulated by Permen 77,' said Lion Air's airport service director, Capt.Daniel Putut, when visiting victims of the crash at Kasih Ibu Hospital in Bali, on Wednesday, as quoted by Kompas.com.
Previously, state-owned travel insurance company PT Jasa Raharja stated it would cover medical expenses for injured victims.
'We have listed all of those being treated at hospital. We will cover their medical expenses,' said Bali-chapter Jasa Raharja director, I Ketut Sudiasa, on Sunday as quoted by tribunnews.com.
There are 52 passengers receiving treatment at several hospitals in Bali. (nai/ebf)
