more that there’s a line at which they could potentially have saved the passenger and was the plane still in the air? did they know the emergency was ongoing? legally and honestly as a person who has frequent emergencies probably better to just land as soon as they know someone is dying and/or dead and let the on duty emergency services sort it out as a policy. they don’t have the class of drugs i like on airplanes usually anyways.
if they need someone to sit next to someone who’s passed, as long as they’re in one or two pieces i can do it. i’ve handled enough people after they’ve gone. worked a few months in mortuary in college.
I think it would be fine for me. Ever since I helped a surgeon to hold open a piece of human pelvis that was donated to science so he could experiment with our Hololens app some more, I know that I can apparently deal with dead people okay.
I was the programmer not any sort of medical staff, but since the assistants had left with the other senior surgeon for another assignments the remaining one asked me to hold on to one of the grips and pull a bit for a moment, so he could follow the bone with our 3D marker. Surreal situation.
What if the dead turned zombie and started mumbling but otherwise ignored you? Imagine a polite chap, a British zombie, just quite old and mumbling to itself like … old people do.
Would you prefer to continue the flight or be diverted and change seats?
I get it, but it’s an emergency for the passenger that has to sit next to a dead guy for the entire flight.
I’d like to think I could get past it, and just bury myself in my phone, but I think it would still creep me out more than I’d like to admit.
Nah, seats are for the living. Yeet the body off the aircraft, sky burial.

I mean, at least it’s someone that won’t try to force smalltalk and whatnot (if they did then I’d be worried).
