A passenger in first class woke up to a shock when he found himself sitting
near a corpse on a British Airways flight, British newspapers reported on
Monday.
The cabin crew moved the body of the elderly woman from the economy section where she had died after take-off, the Mirror and Sun tabloids said.
“The corpse was strapped into the seat but because of turbulence it kept slipping down on to the floor,” Paul Trinder, a businessman, was quoted as saying. “It was horrific. The body had to be wedged in place with lots of pillows.”
The woman’s daughter was also upgraded and spent the rest of the nine-hour flight from Delhi to London grieving next to her dead mother, the Sun reported.
Now you know what it takes to get upgraded on British Airways.
