PARIS—Families of victims of the Germanwings plane crash are meeting with investigators in Paris Thursday, amid lingering questions about why the co-pilot intentionally destroyed the Airbus A320 and how relatives may be compensated for their loss.

The meeting, which is to also focus on the long-stalled return of the victims’ belongings, comes in the same week that the first remains were returned to families after the March 24 crash. All 150 people on board were killed.
