What happens if someone dies on board a plane?

“What happens when someone dies on an airplane?”

Former London flight attendant Mrs Meho said there’s little cabin crew
can do with a corpse, so the priority is to place the body out of
sight.

“We make the body comfortable,” Mrs Meho said.

“Either that means taking it somewhere discreet or lying the body flat
and covering with a blanket. If there are not seats we ‘prop’ the body
up.”

“We can place them (bodies) anywhere, but not a lavatory,” Sharon
said.

“We are also given the option of putting an oxygen mask on the person
and simply saying they didn’t feel well, even if we were sure they had
gone to meet their maker.”
