Headline: Airline Moves Dead Body to 1st Class

The economy section of the flight was full, and the cabin crew needed to move the woman and her grieving family out of that compartment to give them some privacy, the airline said.

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Captain has turned on the WTF light.

Imagine the conversation between flight attendants once the news was out.

#1: "We have to get this woman to a morgue as soon as possible!"
#2: "A morgue, what is it?"
#1: "It's a big building where they bring dead people, but that's not important right now."

Oh, the cabin pressure of it all!

I suppose finding her a seat in First Class was better than trying to stuff her in an overhead bin. Hopefully they had the good sense to fasten her seatbelt - as if turbulence isn't bad enough!

Even David Zucker would've hesitated before laughing at the sight of her bouncing around the place uncontrollably. Yep. Hope they remembered to do that, not to mention, put 2 blankets over her as well.

Would landing precautions be pretty much useless at that point? Call it a long shot, but I would guess she would've remained in the upright and locked position long after she got off of the plane anyway. ugh!

Considering their limited options, an upgrade was a nice gesture on the part of the airline, afterall, pilot's wings pale in comparison to the angel variety any day.
