What will happen if a person dies on a plane? What do they do? Do they put the corpse with the buggage?

Also when the plane lands does the wife of the diseased go with with the paramedics, or does she go to passport check just like all the other passengers? So, what exactly happens if a passenger on the plane dies while in flight? What is the procedure after that?|||A person would not be placed in "buggage" (baggage), but maybe a holding area/cargo area.





The wife of the "diseased" (deceased) will depend on if she was on the plane or not. If on the plane, she will need to go through checks and then be accompanied by officials.





Most likely, it will be a coroner that collects the body as a paramedic is not needed for a deceased person. The airline will fill out all necessary paperwork/forms, deal with medical personnel and police along with the wife (if on plane).





If the persons death is suspect or an infectious disease is questioned, the plane will be quarantined and all are stuck on plane until cleared.
