Summary
A couple on a Qatar Airways flight from Melbourne to Doha was forced to sit next to a deceased passenger for four hours after she collapsed and died mid-flight.
The flight crew moved the woman’s body to an empty seat beside them and denied their request to change seats.
Qatar Airways apologized but did not offer the couple support after the incident.
The couple, en route to Venice, criticized the airline’s handling of the situation but are trying to continue their trip despite the distressing experience.
Given Trump’s policies, idk about that. It might become commonplace for us to see dead bodies. It was during his last admin, all those makeshift body storage areas, remember?
But in the highly specific situation of me having to sit next to one on a plane? Still unlikely.
What about on a train?
I feel like they wouldn’t force someone to sit next to a corpse on a train, as stopping is much easier.
What about a gondola?
