Couple forced to sit next to dead body on plane for 4 hours after woman dies mid-flight
-
Joke's on Ozzy if that was an international flight, you get free drinks on those whether or not someone next to you dies
-
The news just doesn't report shit like that.
-
So the road toll might not actually be because of cars
-
What? I flew Rome to New York and everyone got a tiny water bottle for the entire flight and all other drinks (including more water) were crazy expensive
-
Same. Plus I can tell the parent that they are doing great. Maybe even help somehow, even if it is just to open the snacks.
-
I don't understand this.
Normally they don't care if you move to a same fare seat. -
Maybe it's different when you're starting in the States, but every international flight I've been on has served at least two meals and complimentary drinks.
-
There's bodily fluids that leak out afterwards. I don't think you'd want that to splash on you during turbulence.
-
Instincts, man. People here lack them. Don't hang out next to a dead body of someone who just randomly collapsed, especially on something like a plane which can experience bad turbulence.
-
Well, she did die in the bathroom, so maybe her bowels are emptied?
-
She could bleed out of her mouth, nose, or other orifices depending on how she died, and people have a lot of blood in them. Also pee, vomit
-
Cover her with blankets.
-
If there's even the slightest chance that something could be shittier in the United States come on the answer is yes.
-
No, I'm saying all of my international flights that take off from the States have had complimentary meals and drinks
-
On the other hand, if body odor bothers you...
-
This has little to do with a flight being international or not, or where it starts. It depends on the airline and its policies. For example: Aeroflot serves "real" food starting from 3 hour flights. Munich to St Petersburg is 2 hours 55 minutes, so you get a horrible sandwich that haunts me to this day. But at least you get non alcoholic beverages for free. If you fly this route with Lufthansa, you get a warm meal with a free beer.
The flight I was referring to (Rome - New York and back) was a Lufthansa flight, but operated by Eurowings. They are a cheap airline, and it depended on your ticket whether or not food and one beverage was included or not. Most people did not have food included in their ticket, they still could buy some on board for like 18€. Only a small bottle of water was provided, although the flight was 6 hours.
Munich to Brussels is 55 minutes. Lufthansa gives you crackers and a non alcoholic beverage for free, and they struggle for their lives to get that to you in such a short period of time.

Bless Singapore and their innovation in shoving humans bodies into cupboards, from domestic workers in apartments to corpses on airplanes
-
In four hours and in a relatively cool room, with adequate ventilation, that's not really a problem. It's not like they picked a decomposing corpse before take off and stuffed it there.
Worst case scenario order a coffee and leave it on it.
-
It's not the decomposition, it's the bladder and bowels slowly emptying themselves!
