  • Latam Airlines has offered money to passengers injured in a midair drop last month, a law firm said. 
  • A law firm representing 15 passengers said the payouts range between $2,000 and $7,650.
  • The Montreal Convention of 1999 sets airline liability up to $160,000, but passengers can get more.

Latam Airlines is offering some passengers thousands of dollars in compensation after one of its widebody planes dropped midair over the Pacific Ocean in March, according to one law firm.
