Ninety-nine passengers and four crew members were aboard the aircraft, according to Aeromxico . Officials initially reported there had been 97 passengers aboard, but later updated the count to include two additional minors. Its unclear how many Americans were aboard at the time.

Passengers recounted the brief flight to local news outlets, describing some of the injuries among their fellow travelers.

The people were panicked. There was another family with three kids and another man whose head was all bloody, Jackeline Flores, a passenger on the flight, told Univision . She said authorities arrived about 20 minutes after the crash and helped them evacuate. We walked, we arrived at a little white [house] and we waited for the rain to stop and someone to help us. We started to pray while we watched how the plane was burning.

I feel blessed and grateful to God, Flores later told Reuters.
