A Moroccan died on Sunday, April 5 during a flight from Nador to Brussels. The Air Arabia airline plane had to make an emergency landing in Bordeaux to disembark the deceased and his wife.
A tragedy occurred this Sunday morning on board a flight that took off at 7 a.m. from Al Aroui airport in Nador. During the journey to Belgium, a passenger from the province of Guercif suffered a heart attack. Despite the immediate intervention of the crew to try to revive him, the man succumbed before the plane could land, forcing the pilot to request an emergency landing at Bordeaux airport.

The plane finally resumed its journey to Brussels after leaving the body of the deceased and his wife on French soil. This choice to continue to France rather than turn back to Morocco raised questions among the passengers. Several witnesses pointed out that a return to the point of departure could have simplified the repatriation procedures, thus avoiding the complex European administrative procedures for the family to organize the funeral.
