A 73-year-old woman on board a British Airways flight this week who was thought to be sleeping has actually died, reportedly after suffering a heart attack mid-air.
Fellow passengers on Thursday’s flight from London to Nice realized something was wrong when they landed and the woman remained silent as the others went to get their luggage to disembark.
Others on the flight became more concerned when they were unable to wake the old woman.
The terrified passenger alerted the flight crew, who contacted emergency services. Paramedics tried to revive him, but could not, French newspaper The Connexion reported.
The woman was pronounced dead at 10 p.m
He is suspected to have died of a heart attack, the French publication said.
