Dead body found in airliner’s restroom

Filed under: Flight Attendant, Passengers, safety — anne @ 8:07 am

Put this at the top of the list of “Surprises That Make Flight Attendants Cranky”.

This surprise took place on a Delta flight from LA to Atlanta. The flight attendants noticed that a restroom was occupied as the plane coming in for a landing.

So they prudently wait for the plane to touch down, then opened up the restroom door, and…there’s a dead body inside.

Presumably, it was the body of a passenger. No cause of death, and no identity has been announced, so far.

UPDATE: Authorities say the 61 year old woman (and yes, she was a passenger) died of a pre-existing heart condition. Sad.
