NAIROBI, Kenya, Sep 15 – Kenya Airways has announced the demise of a passenger who developed breathing difficulties while boarding the flight.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The flight which was scheduled to depart for Mombasa at 1900hrs Wednesday evening was still on ground at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) when the said passenger passed away.<\/p>\n

The passenger was pronounced dead by personnel at the airport before the aircraft took off.<\/p>\n

“We convey our deepest condolences to the family and friends of the deceased during this difficult time,” said KQ.<\/p>\n

This become the third death the national carrier is reporting in less than 30 days.<\/p>\n

KQ reported the death of a 66-year-old man on September 2, who too died after developing breathing complications while on board.<\/p>\n

He was headed to Nairobi from New York when he developed complications, compelling the flight to land in Morocco for him to get medical attention when he was announced dead.<\/p>\n

The first case involved a passenger who died on August 2022 onboard, forcing the flight to make an emergency landing in Casablanca.<\/p>\n

The airline said the passenger had fallen ill while onboard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
