Flight route from San Francisco to Dubai. Two maps, two perspectives. in c/[email protected]

While I agree about dumping carbon up there, Dubai is Emirates' hub, so people going from anywhere in Asia to San Francisco and vice-versa have connections flights at Dubai.

Few people have it as a destination. Most passengers will be Asians visiting family in the US or going home from the US.

As much as I loathe the twat, this issue predates him. Now, after what he's done to the FAA, good luck convincing them to come back. A very stressful, understaffed job... Sure they'll want to get out of retirement...

Couple forced to sit next to dead body on plane for 4 hours after woman dies mid-flight in c/[email protected]

I don't understand this. Normally they don't care if you move to a same fare seat.

Cover the body, and relocate surrounding passengers, if possible, if you can't move the body to business class (moving a dead body respectfully is very hard).

Apparently there were free seats elsewhere, the pax should have been offered relocation. ~~However it's not clear if the passengers asked. The cabin crew could have been rattled too and forgot.~~

Edit: They apparently asked, I don't see why they couldn't move.
