An airline has reimbursed a Swedish woman after she was given no choice but to sit across a corpse for much of a 10-hour flight to Kenya.

Lena Pettersson, a reporter for ‘Radio Sweden’, revealed that her fellow passenger, a man in his 30s, appeared to be sick when she boarded a Dar es Salaam-bound Kenya Airways flight during a stopover at Amsterdam’s Schiphol airport, the New York Daily reported.

“He was sweating and had seizures,” the New York Daily quoted her as telling Radio Sweden.

“Air hostesses were there all along, but the plane took off anyway.”

The man reportedly died a few hours into the overnight flight, despite efforts by the crew and passengers to revive him.

Pettersson, who was headed to Tanzania on vacation, was compelled to sit across the aisle from the corpse for the rest of the trip.

“I asked to move, but they said there were no other places,” she said.

However, after returning home, Pettersson emailed the airline, which eventually apologized and refunded about half the cost of her 1,400 dollars ticket.

“This feels much better. It is reasonable,” Pettersson added.
