The Dornier Do 24T-3 was carrying four crew members and 77 passengers when it crashed.

Notes on verification

Crew count of four is well corroborated across independent sources. Exact passenger count of 77 varies across sources (70-80+ range), with historical uncertainty over the precise number, so the specific figure of 77 is plausible but not definitively confirmed.
