I’m a flight attendant – the only thing that freaks me out is what we have to do when someone dies on a flight
MANY people are scared of flying.
But the reasons for this fear are usually related to turbulence, crashing, or getting sick on the plane.
One flight attendant shared a protocol that all attendants must apparently follow, and the internet is saying she unlocked a whole new fear in them.
Speaking to the hosts of the podcast Other People’s Lives, who go by @oplpodcast on TikTok, she revealed what flight attendants must do if someone dies on board:
“The thing that always kind of freaks me out is that we have to put them back in their seat.
“And we have to recline the seat a little bit and put a blanket all up to their neck. We cannot cover their face.”

The hosts were horrified by the thought.
“Yes. So, if it’s a full flight and the person next to you has a heart attack, and we can’t move anyone else, you have a dead person next to you until we land,” she explained.
“Jesus. And you just have to make it look like they’re sleeping?” one of the hosts hesitantly asked.
“Yeah. And if someone says, ‘Is the person next to me dead?’ you have to say, ‘It appears so,’” the flight attendant added.

“There is no way I would be able to sit there. No way,” one person wrote.
“Does the airline pay for the therapy that person will probably need? Good lord,” added another.
