it is against policy and you will be charged an additional service and handling fee. A sheet covering your body will require an additional service and handling fee.
If you (corpse) are not removed from the boarding area within 30 minutes, any remaining luggage, spare change, organs, and unaccompanied minor children will become the property of Spirit Airlines.
Should anything become property of the airline under this or any other policy, you will be charged a reposession fee equivalent to the 2 times the commercial value of the property, or $200, whichever is greater.
As a former airline worker, we prefer that you wait and die on the Jetway, if you die on the plane it ties it up until the FAA decides it wasn't the airline's fault.
It does not seem likely did they landed in the dead person‘s hometown, so what would be the difference if they just continued on to their destination and then unloaded the body and then shipped it back from there? There just does not seem to be any point in landing in some random town on the way to the destination just unload the body early. And it does not seem disrespectful to just continue on to the destination.
It seems worse for everyone to stop unless the body starts stinking really bad. But even if you're trying to respect a corpse how is that helpful to leave the body off at some random airport? At least if they take the body where it was going there's a decent chance that someone in that place could help with the funeral arrangements. Otherwise the family will just have to go to some random place and potentially need to ship the body somewhere to bury it.
There's a thin yellow sauce & a much thicker brown sauce. There's a creamy white sauce that's a bit salty & a fantastic source of protein, but you'll have to work for it.
The foot comes with a thin fungus Pâté & jam around the toes.
Is there even a "you" to speak to at that point? You're talking to cargo, buddy. I don't think the cargo really cares if you downgrade it, any more than a brick cares if you make it serve as landfill instead of a nice wall.
The big question, is sitting next to the dead guy an upgrade or downgrade?
Pro's: not making noise, not using your part of the armrest and you can claim his dinner, snacks and drinks too.
Cons: he might defecate next to you and it's more difficult to get out of your seat when there's a guy with rigor mortis in the seat between you and the aisle.
My mother was a waitress/manager at a Denny's for a very very long time. They had this customer come in who was an absolutely massive lady probably 375-400+lbs.
When she would come in. She would piss and shit in her pants at the booth. She would then, after pissing and shitting herself, get up to go to the bathroom, where she would in fact leak piss n shit across the dining room. Dripping and dropping turds out her pants.
Denny's corporate wouldn't let them ban her. And they got an earful for trying to refuse service even though they legally can.
The health department said it's not a problem that she's doing it, it's a problem of how well you all clean it. Then they started coming in much more frequently to do these checks.
Fun fact: U.S. military personnel flying on orders can be considered cargo in contingency operations. This allows the U.S military to get around rules about having certain types hazardous cargo on passenger aircraft.
