A Swiss Air flight from Mumbai to Zurich (LX 155) got delayed for three hours after a 73-year-old passenger died soon after getting seated in the aircraft yesterday at Mumbai airport. When Ramanlal Patel, a wheelchair-bound passenger, complained of chest pain, the on-duty Mumbai International Airport Pvt. Ltd. (MIAL) doctor rushed to him but he had died by then.

An airline official said, “The passenger complained of uneasiness and chest pain but couldn’t be helped as he had already passed away by the time the doctors came in.”
