In United States, the survivors of air accident are given a lot of support according to kind and place of the accident. Victims of smaller airplane accidents that happened outside the country are given restricted financial assistance. However, in major air accidents within U.S. victims' survivors are given higher grants after difficult dealings with the state and federal laws together with international law.

 

Under the federal laws, every airline company has to pursue the post-accident requirements like counseling the grieved family, employing individual caretakers, helping families to identify the remains and possessions of their loved ones, creating contacting networks with the surviving family members of victims.
