The couple can whine all they want but there’s no other place to put the dead passenger except back in their seat.
See my post 28 below.
I'm not convinced of that. How about the hold? Would need a sealed, pressurized container of some sort--but a back-up fridge would qualify for that, and you know any airplane has some of those.
Might not want to use that particular unit for food after that. . .
I feel much the same way as you do, but I figure they should have been able to stretch out the body in the rear of the plane near the galley. They could have tied it down and covered it with something so people using the head wouldn’t have to view it directly. And the flight attendants might have had to extend their legs over the body, but...if the flight is full, what are you going to do?
I don’t like that they put the body in a seat next to someone. There must have been a better solution, but...I wasn’t there, so I can’t say for sure.
They could lay it out in the galley.
Can’t put her in a bathroom if there’s more than one on the plane?
