Police have confirmed that a passenger who died onboard a Jet2 flight was a woman, from Cheshire, in her 60s.
The LS756 flight from Tenerife to Manchester Airport needed to make an emergency landing three hours into the journey, on Sunday, April 2, after a woman fell ill. It was reported that the woman needed medical assistance after she looked to be in "in distress".
The plane was diverted to Cornwall Airport Newquay after the woman was seen being given CPR by medical professionals and that "it was clear something had changed and we needed to land straight away."
