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.
Even if the body was in the aisle seat… Can you imagine hauling a body down the aisle of a fully booked flight?
Just put on the seatbelt sign and do a parabolic arc to simulate microgravity. Way easier to nudge a body around then!
It sounds like they already moved the body after death. They specifically moved the body to that seat.
I feel like they low key hated that particular couple.
They flew all the way from Melbourne to go to Venice of all places, can’t help but get the mental image of an obnoxious insta couple.
