I found a follow-up story on Kyodo that said the wife of Japan's incoming FTC head was the passenger who died (it didn't mention six others dying). The reports are conflicting on cause of death, one said a stroke and the others say "unspecified illness".

One person dying is not suspicious, but if it turns out that several others did then I'd get concerned about some sort of chemical attack.

Confirmed as one dead; heart attack. Late night radio news.

Did they ever find that missing cyanide?

[geologist]

perhaps they served suishi, and the chef that did the 'blow fish' was careless ...or botulism in something they ate ...

I'm glad I am not starting out my career in life selling airline tickets.

Skip the fish course. Trust me.

1 person dying I would not be suspicous. 7 people I would suspect carbon monoxide poisoning.
