A passenger on board a Lufthansa flight from Thailand to Germany on Thursday collapsed and died mid-flight in front of his wife after he started coughing up liters of blood from his mouth and nose, as fellow travelers watched in shock and horror. The unnamed 63-year-old German man was seen boarding the Airbus A380 in Bangkok shortly before midnight.
The man was visibly unwell, showing symptoms such as «cold sweats» and «breathing much too quickly», as recounted by Karin Missfelder to the Swiss German outlet Blick.
