An Air India flight passenger was found dead in his seat after the flight landed at the Lucknow airport from Delhi. The deceased was identified as Asif Ullah Ansari.

Air India flight AI2845 reached Lucknow’s Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport from Delhi at 8:10 AM. The crew members, initially assumed he might have fallen asleep and tried to wake him up during the post-landing procedures. But there was no response. A doctor present on the flight examined the passenger and declared him dead.

The passenger had not even opened his seat belt.

Authorities have launched an investigation to determine the circumstances surrounding his death. But the cause of death will be clear after the autopsy report is out

Elderly Air India Flyer, 'Denied Wheelchair, Collapses At Airport

This incident comes in the wake of another troubling episode involving the airline. Earlier this month, an 82-year-old woman reportedly suffered a brain stroke and fell at Delhi Airport, allegedly due to Air India’s failure to provide a pre-booked wheelchair.

The elderly woman was scheduled to fly from Delhi to Bengaluru, and her family claimed that despite prior arrangements, the requested wheelchair was not made available upon her arrival at the airport. As a result, she had to navigate the terminal without assistance, leading to her fall and subsequent hospitalisation.

Air India, however, refuted the claim, stating that accusations of a one-hour delay in providing the wheelchair were unfounded.
