A 24-year-old Indian-origin woman, Manpreet Kaur, has died on a Qantas flight from Mel𝔍bournꦓe to Delhi before the plane could take off.
Kaur, who had been living in Australia since 2020, was returning to India for the first time in four years to visit her family on June 20, reported News.com.au. She had been feeling unwell before boarding the flight but managed to🍸 get on the plane without any issues.
However, as she tried to put on her seatbelt, she collapsed and died immediately. The aircraft was still🐬 at the boarding gate in Melbourne when cabin crew and emergency services rushed to assist her.
