I am a doctor,I used to live and work at Singapore. My father was unwell and I was returning from Jaipur to Singapore after meeting him, via scoot airlines which is a budget airline.They made an announcement almost 2 more hours before landing if there is a doctor onboard. I volunteered, an man was having Chest pain, I took his BP which was quite high, I was happy airlines had essential medicines I needed,to control his BP and gave blood thinners. They started giving him oxygen, I told them we need to divert to nearest location,we landed at Malaysia in half hour and immediately the medical came to flight,took patient over from me,he was stable by then, BP had come down and we left for Singapore. Few days later the flight attendants called me and gave me business class tickets to travel anywhere. I am just appalled the treatment this gentleman man received.

Ohh i can assure they are just so cold hearted for human life and emotions i been living here 3 yrs … disgusting country

[@kth6736]

South East Asia has absolutely correct procedures and infrastructure for such situations. The western world is all propaganda and no real service. I am a uk citizen and have seen first hand the dire state of helathcare in both uk and canada.

[@shanupande8060]

Asians are emotional people who think from their heart and not head. Their emotions weigh more than their materialistic gains. The so-called propaganda of compassion, equality, and value of human life is just an eyewash in the Western countries. Money matters most to them. God is watching and the responsible people are gonna pay for this one-day!

[@lalaland8112]

@@kth6736 absolutely,I now live in NZ and comparing to Singapore and even India the primary and tertiary health care situation is pathetic. I hear same things about Canada ,UK and USA is different story all together. Wonder how these places are called first world countries

[@yogeshdahiya3345]

Great work doctor 👏 God bless you Sir.

[@komalpapneja6640]

This just hits home for me. I am so thankful we sent my father back to India when he had heart issues. We went to emergency three times in Canada and no doctor had any idea that his symptoms were heart-related. Google knew better. After landing in India, a Cardiology hospital admitted him to ICU on the same day. His heart’s ejection rate was 15%. He was this close to complete heart failure. With how poor healthcare system is in Canada, it’s no surprise a Canadian airline handled it so poorly. I am so sorry for your loss. Stay strong.

[@Raj-mw9gb]

Bhaisaab India is far ahead in medical treatment in today’s date.

[@shanupande8060]

Thank you for your kind words. My dad fought hard for 9 hours. Had these brutal people shown little empathy and had any humanity left in them, then he would be with us today. At least they should have tried to save a human life. This propaganda of value of human life in the west is just an eye wash & a trick of minting money from immigrants who leave their country for a better life. The shameless people are not even willing to tell why they did not divert the flight. God is watching them and they all are going to pay for this one day!!

Suggesting to translate this Podcast video to English and French, provide subtitles/voiceovers and use all resources to put it across to media and external affair ministries. It's a very important subject of case study. Podcast's discussion is brilliantly narrating the chronology and flight location of the incident. This can help amending policies of airlines to prioritise life support over business for all mankind. A very eye opener video, thanks for helping the grieved couple to share their experience, my heartfelt condolences to them

[@user-ec2pq7ep1p]

Every person should know how to administer cpr. It’s life saving. Things to remember when someone is having heart attacks -Lay the person down. Never have person sitter or standing - never let the person go to washroom. It’s the heart attack making person feel like they need to go but don’t need to.

[@vineetm7984]

Trust me , I cannot agree with more what you mentioned at the end! Air india is the best in such situations! I have experienced a similar situation on a Air India flight from London to Delhi The air india pilot returned the flight back after two hours of flight

[@sheelukj]

Hi Candid cast team, the video teaches us a lot. My heart goes out to the suffering couple. Around 2 years back while going to Canada with my daughter by Air Canada we too had a very bad experience. It was clearly racism. Next time when we had to come back to India we booked Air India which got delayed by Around 24 hours. I was connected to a travel Facebook group to seek travel related help during pandemic. Everyone was literally giving it to AI with all sorts of abusive word. After 24 hours while boarding the flight I came to know the reason for delay. A lady in the flight was feeling uneasy n breathless after the last flight took off n the pilot immediately decided to divert the flight. The staff was all with her untill she was sent to the hospital. It was her daughter who had come to the airport to collect her mom's luggage told us the storey. I realized that how wrong we all were...

[@yogeshpande04]

AirCanada is inhuman they valued money over our father’s life. AirCanada has taken away the happiness from our life, and we will always regret why we called our father here when he was living a happy life in India. Tell me who will survive after having a massive heart attack for nine long hours.. I wish the family of the person should get the same fate one day Whosoever was responsible for this wrong decision of not diverting the plane.

[@auntyshanti.]

I am 73..frequent traveller.this is an eye opener.u r helping lot of old people like me. So sad for trauma u n ur father had to go thro. May his soul RIP.

[@shanupande8060]

Thank you candid cast for spreading awareness. Yes, nothing can bring my dear father back, but we can bring some justice to him by boycotting this airlines as they can do this to anyone, whether young or old. Till date, Air Canada is remorseless and trying to pin accuses on me. Please sign and share the petition to the maximum so that everyone is aware of the dark side of Air Canada. This is for the benefit of others so that no one else suffers the same unfortunate fate as my beloved father. Thank you.

[@shanupande8060]

[@shanupande8060]

Just to let you know that my father had undergone a full body check up and was given a PR based on his medical condition. His body check up was approved by Canadian approved medical centre in Mumbai. That’s why he got his PR.

[@Shubham-jz7ec]

Thank you so much for this podcast and bringing this to our attention! For the sake of some financial gains, they played with one's life, which seems to me the utmost deterioration of humanity. My deepest condolences to the family

[@muzaienmir1822]

This is utterly inhumane on Air Canada's part. Air Canada should prioritize humanitarian assistance on their flights, ensuring they have the necessary emergency equipment and trained staff. In situations like this, they should prioritize human lives over cost considerations and business interests. You've done a commendable job, Harmeet, by raising awareness about this devastating incident caused by Air Canada's negligence. My thoughts and prayers are with the affected family in their pursuit of justice 🙏

Regarding ad placements, while your loyal subscribers will understand and support but for preserving the integrity of content like this, it probably should remain in its purest form. For more casual content, sponsorships work, but perhaps for conversation like this you will have to do it on your own time/money.

[@Mr.Sanguine]

I was once on a flight where someone had a heart attack, the flight was 3 hours from any land. Luckily there was a person who was trained as a doctor, She helped the traveller with first aid. Also force them to give out the call transcripts between pilots and ground. They don't give it to us but make sure to ask your lawyer to request for this to see if Pilot understood what crew said and relayed it correct. Also it is very strange that Pilot/Copilot didn't come and evaluate the patient's situation to make a decision.

[@NomadBenny]

Pilot main job is too fly and ensure land safely. They cannot leave cockpit as per protocol.

[@rickywarrik6665]

There is an RTI version law in canada. File RTI with air canada

[@Mr.Sanguine]

@@NomadBenny you are wrong, A pilot once in air is incharge of every signle thing. They are allowed to visit a passenger in distress or unruly passenger etc.

[@shanupande8060]

Air Canada‘s response has been remorseless and shameless. There is no option left but to seek a legal route so that the communication between the pilot and the ground people comes to light. They are telling a lie at each step. It’s brutal and unpardonable that they let my dear dad die for their materialistic gains! God is watching them and they all are going to pay for this one day!

[@HappyHealthyFoodie]

Just watched this podcast, first of all my heartfelt condolences to family Pandey, must say Mrs Pandey ,you are such a brave lady, i am amazed how bravely you managed everything, hats off to you. May your fathers soul rest in peace. I have worked as a trainee in Air India in Frankfurt, we used to have flights for Toronto Del Fra Can , there were many passengers who were in their 80s, travelling to and fro, perpetually not exaggerating there on every flight a death. Heart attacks are very common, Reason being the air pressure in the flight , Airplane cabins are not pressurized to sea level. Air pressure in the cabin falls with increasing altitude, resulting in a decrease in blood oxygen level (hypoxemia), more so in elderly passengers. Then sitting too long can cause blood clots. The Airlines are aware of these things, sorry to say when a passenger is in his 80s , usually people say its ok even if he dies he has lived hs age, But thats very inhuman. Now diverting a flight, making an emergency landing due to a situation like your father they will never do, even if a pilot is having a heart attack the co pilot takes over till his destination is reached. An emergency landing rights are given when there are chances of a plane crash only. As i recollect , Air india had stopped taking senior passengers on board for many years, but then AI had stopped flying from frankfurt to Canada s well. As correctly assumed by Mr Pandey the airlines are used to seniors often getting heart attacks , t was nothing new for them. Its a daily routine. Sorry for your loss, but trust me you can try to sue them you will not get a penny as there hidden rules and regulations of travel are so minutely written a normal person can never understand. These guys have powerful lawyers, hope in the end the Company might ask you to pay the back for their lawyers costing. Sad it has happened , good you guys have spoken your heart out, and alerted many people about your experience. The bottomline is think well before flying with senior citizens on such long flights, take halts if you can break the journey overnight , and then travel. Good podcast, to the host keep up the good work.Thanks.

[@SKYT021]

Quite useful and realistic angle @HappyHealthyFoodie. Just wanted to add one more Sad Reality of our so called 'system' where any lower ranked politician OR any other influential person can break any protocol of any institution and as far as the airline companies goes, they will not have the courage to say anything except to cooperate silently! Alas! this is the irony which makes it even more painful.

[@shanupande8060]

Thank you for your kind words and support. Yes, some people have commented that my father had lived a full life. It is quite a brutal thing to hear. But, I just want to ask, have there not been instances when the flights have been diverted due to the unruly behaviour of a passenger and other trivial issues? I have heard from so many friends that emirates diverted the flight, and even Air India when there was a medical emergency on board. Is it a norm in the airlines in the West that they value their materialistic gain over human life? There are so many questions that have been left unanswered and open-ended. Thank you for bringing your experience and Knowledge to light.

[@HappyHealthyFoodie]

@@shanupande8060 Many answers go unanswered for the time being but with time the answers come if we have faith in whatever we practise as a religion or spiritually.As heard my mom always said "Mauth khabhi bhi khud per blame leti, koi na koi bahna bana deti hai" This has a deep meaning . Life and death is in not our hands, if we accept this Shanu ji, you will allow your father's soul to be at peace. Your trauma is understandable ,you must talk out all your expiernces and emotions to help yourself, if this stays embedded in you will suffer more. Please take some proffesional help aswell. You have a very supportive husband, he is doing best to his capacity, I saw all the email address that were posted in the description box, great job done. Haven't you heard women delivering during the flight. Odd cases do happen, as they are bound to happen it was so written. Dad's demise is very sad thing to happen, if you see another way, you were atleast with him, you have been living away from India so long, in his last breath you were with him your sister in India wasn't there. These words are extremly cruel when people say he or she has lived his years especially for those who are hail and hearty, if somebody is suffering I can understand. There is no harm in trying to still go through a lawyer and get your answers from the airlines, I will only say you are ruining your nerves, this processes can take ages. On the other hand you might be able to make airline realise in future for 16hrs of flight it should be mandatory to have a doctor on board. My heartfelt ♥️ Condolences to each and every family member. We can only pray to God to help you all to get your answers and be peaceful. Stay strong.God bless.🙏🙏

I am so sorry to hear this and for your loss, it is heart breaking to listen to this. I personally returned back to Canada because I travelled and lived alone for almost two years and I faced so much racism and I knew i would be dead because MOST of the Canadians do not care for any human values, god is watching them and they will pay for what they’re doing to our country men. I am so so sorry, I hope the family finds healing with time. And the man is right, they’re treating us Indians like we are garbage.

What would happen to a passenger who is travelling alone and suffers such medical emergency

Money was given importance over someone's life, that is inhumane. They should consult a lawyer and seek justice. I am surprised they have not taken AC to court. Please kindly advice them to see a lawyer who can help them get justice.

[@blogging_limca]

Harmeet, I would suggest you to make sure you please talk to people once before bringing them to your show. If something extremely sad has happened, people may be in a state of grief and may use bad words and use too demonizing words for Canada. You should suggest people to use softer words. Imagine Canadian ministers watching these videos - what are they going to think. This is not the only video. I have seen so many videos in which people use so hard words. We are all educated people - should use softer language.

[@VaidyaDeepti]

If they knew it was heart attack, may be they were right for not giving water or electrolytes bcoz giving water or food during heart attack can cause choking & vomiting. However, they were definitely wrong for not diverting the flight knowing it was a heart attack! It’s really sad & frustrating to even listen how they treated them 😡 keep continuing the fight for justice. If they are emailing you separately not looping in everyone, you attach that email & respond back looping in everyone

[@dwightdabreo7478]

Sorry for your loss, I have one observation I’m 80 years old and travelled a lot in my life time, that is almost all airlines have their shortcomings,passengers are treated as baggage, and it starts from the Airport authorities that oversee the airportS worldwide and this pain and suffering is due to laxity of our politicians who do nothing to monitor and hold airlines responsible.

[@hybridlearning4248]

Heartfelt condolences to you and your family. I can only imagine how difficult this time must be for you all. We, as a family went thru this situation when my father (heart patient) flown from Karachi to SFO in 2014 through Emirate air. His condition deteriorated 5 hours after their take off from Dubai but flight attended never cared about almost anything. There is a need to update their SOPs of airlines to handle these life threatening scenarios.

Thank you for your support. Yes, Air Canada, the big corporate organization vs. the life of a common man and that too an Indian. it’s not going to be an easy battle! You are 100% right, if it were a white man, then the story would have been different altogether because their government would intervene. Indian government is just not bothered. We have tried approaching the external affairs ministry but there is no word from them. Sadly, we don’t value our own citizens, and that’s why they are treated this way all over the world

[@Aashu_hooda]

Only suggestion is to boycott this airlines

[@shaileshrao6759]

My suggestion is to carry 4 basic medications ( BP and cholestrol control + blood thinners in your pocket after consulting your family physician ) to avoid last minute emergencies till paramedics arrive.

[@shanupande8060]

Just to clarify that, no medicine can save a person without medical treatment for 9 hours, if he or she has suffered a heart attack. We have consulted so many doctors and given interviews in CBC and Toronto Global News. CBC contacted five top cardiologists and they are shocked as to why the plane was not diverted. They deemed it as an urgent medical emergency. What Air Canada has done is an unpardonable sin. Please sign and share the petition as much as you can, so that the dark truth of Air Canada is exposed.

As a businessman, I have observed many great stories of customer CARE and it led to increase in their business due to their support in critical conditions. Also, it can NOT be ignored that Higher Management of the Company & Canadian Government is taking a death so casually & behaving as if nothing happened. We have seen lower level employees create issues but higher management is highly sensitive about all such issues. But there entire company from Top to Bottom behaving similarly which discloses the "Core Values of the Company in Real".

[@MyraUmar]

My father is 82 now touchwood. I stay in Canada. Firstly I will never take him on a 16 hour non stop flight in economy. Secondly we get a complete body checkup of him every 6 months back in India including detailed MRI , all scans, x-rays, ultrasounds, blood tests etc, heart stress tests. He went to KSA when he was 70 on a 3 hour flight and we took approvals from cardiologist/nephrologist/ neurologist/ general physician before travelling. Never take your parents for granted. Canada is worst in terms of healthcare. There is no medical facility for average people like us. Forget about the senior citizens.

[@shanupande8060]

Thank you for your suggestion. However, just to let you know that my father had a complete body check up with Canadian approved medical centre in Mumbai as he had recently got his PR. All his reports were perfect and that’s why he was granted the PR.

@@shanupande8060 Oh. That standard medical exam is a joke. Senior Citizens should take specialized preventive health care packages designed as per their age.

I could feel the sadness when we bought our home but my father could not see it personally. But his health and comfort above all.

[@ashwinmehta66]

Hey Guys, First off sorry for your loss. I have a Medical + a legal perspective to this situation hence am commenting here. Regret, I am being very direct, blunt and straight forward in my response to you. I only support u being an Indian. I am from Bombay, living in USA. FYI, I have lived in Toronto (1993-1996) also and am a Canadian & American citizen. I have seen your whole video and think you are being purely emotional about the episode of your father passing away in flight. Get this understood: The airline or crew will not dispense any prescription medications. They are only trained in bare basic first aid. It is assumed that the passengers will carry whatever medications or allowable equipments they require on their journey. No airlines will divert any flights due to medical emergencies, 99.9 out of 100 is the probability due to the cost's in doing so. To expect that also is crazy, but at that time your focus is your loved ones so i understand. But decisions need to be made with your brains instead of anywhere else. Level heads prevailing is very important for everything. There is always risk in any journey such a risk is that of the patient not the airlines. The problem didn't occur due to the airline. The airline or its crews have no liability in this case. Its only your emotional demands due to your loss that you say so. The crews handling and thereafter whatever their local officials did was only to cover their LIABILITIES (back side) and nothing else !!! I agree that the crew could have and should have been warm, instead of being so cold, but they were only scared and were worried about LIABILITIES for their employer. Feel free to call me or message me, if you want to talk with me and can handle the truth as mentioned above, on 1-407-468-4573

How are people commenting the way they are?? Are they jerking off on her loss and trauma? I'm very sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine the pain you're going through right now. Losing a parent and that too like this scars you for life. Also, a suggestion. I know you don't want any monetary benefits. But take those 150-200k dollars from them. Make them pay in some way. You may choose to start a charity in your dad's name with that money. Or donate it to a cause that was close to his heart. But make them pay in some way. Let them feel the pinch too so they don't repeat this with someone else ever again.

My dad passed during COVID 1st wave and he could have made it but due to unavailability of medical facilities he could not make it. Will share the petetion for sure. Hope you win the battle. More power to you.

[@ginashiel105]

So very sorry to hear......I pray you get justice.....you would think any airline carries an emergency first aid kit and someone trained to deal with emergencies....especially for sudden heart attacks.....is it possible to sue them?

[@brindashah6435]

Thank you for sharing story and I m sorry for your loss. I also lives in Canada and medical facilities are very bad here and Air Canada was worst in this case. Hope you will get justice soon!

[@dee75pak]

It is due insurance, legal hassels Dr passangers don't respond . First Aid kit (4/5) to be used cabin crew. Physician Kit (1) to be used by medical Dr. But very few Dr come forward specially in US/Canada sector. Oxygen could have given . No one can predict heart attack and even Airport medical centre is not equipped for surgery. Sad.....

[@khadkasubarnabijaya]

Heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family! Although the loss is irreversible, I pray to god that justice is served as soon is possible.

[@heeramaglorekrishnasriniva9386]

Proper investigation is a must, not only availability of BP m/c/ alternate medicines, properly trained & updated staff & the negligency must be nailed & appropriate action must be taken. Also regulators must make the deterrent compensation, higher than cost of flight diversion. My condolence to family, wish they become normal soon.

[@dss8983]

Everyone living outside India specially Canada and UK should get a course in first aid. Even I am living in London and planning for same. Its not like India here that you can get immediate medical help whenever you need. Only ER is open after 6 p.m. and the closest ER can be too far to reach on time. Ambulance might take time to come and one can get stuck in such situations.

Really shocked to hear about the situation Mrs Pandey had to suffer. My condolences to the family members of Mrs Pandey. I can understand the pain of loosing your father. May his soul rest in peace.Om Shanti 🙏

My condolences to your family... I travelled with Air Canada once and decided I will never ever fly with them again and it was in 2016..

[@mayuradeshpande8832]

I am so sorry for your loss but honestly Canada is the worse for senior citizens health care is just not there when you need it. Getting your mother in law here who has pre existing conditions to live in Canada for good is not a good idea. In India you may need to spend money but atleast you get top class medical attention at the right time. All the best to you and your family and sincere condolences.

[@BlazyAbraham]

Condolences and prayers to departed soul. However, I don’t find any logic in bringing senior citizens from India to Canada especially above 80 years although they claim he was healthy - how can they be so sure as they only are saying he never went to hospital. He might have had health issues which is normal but went undetected and got the deadliest situation while in airline- sad but could have been avoided

[@GurdipFlora]

9:01: My condolences to the family for their loss. I am a physician and over the last 40 years of flying internationally I have responded to exactly 4 calls by the pilot or a cabin crew member for help from “any physician onboard the flight”. Cabin crew are generally trained in CPR and basic first aid and have basic medications like acetaminophen, anti nausea medications, antacids, and other minor medications. They always carry a sphygmomanometer or other device to measure BP. In my most recent flight from Malaga to Frankfurt by Lufthansa last month, I had the opportunity to respond to a call for help to assist an elderly woman. Unfortunately we cannot expect the Airlines to provide a doctor on board and full facilities like a hospital with intensive care needs. The airlines generally are expected to, and for the most part, have procedures and protocols to help sick passengers. It was fate and destiny. People get sick and outcomes can be bad. There is no guarantee that people can be saved at ground level with all available facilities. May God give the family the patience and the courage to bear their heavy loss.

[@shanupande8060]

Thank you for your kind words. However, as I have mentioned in my podcast, the crew was extremely incompetent and apathetic. They were shameless enough to tell me that they had a mercury, BP monitor, that they did not know how to use. Being first aid trainers, they never attempted to take the vitals of my father. My father bravely fought for 9 hours. Not even once did they tried to divert the flight. Why?? was it because my dad was an Indian or their materialistic gain valued over human life? Had my dad passed away after getting a medical attention, I would not be so traumatized. He was denied the basic right to live, and literally left to die. How brutal can that be? God is watching all of them and they all are going to pay for this one day!

[@aninditachakraborty9890]

I am beyond shocked !! My deepest condolences to Shanuji. This video is an absolute eye-opener... I hope you guys make Air Canada pay. Air Canada has to be punished for this murder. I was planning my trip to India & I was about to book flights with Air Canada, not anymore..

[@preetiahuja7896]

Sorry for your loss, but honestly most of the times crew only have first aid training. They are not doctors. Don't know if an announcement was made for a doctor passenger on board. Airlines do not have doctors on board. And yes, a hopping flight makes sense. Also, certain things like bp monitors are not available in crew medical kits. It's unfortunate & traumatic, quite understandable. I don't understand why the crew made him stand, though. But, honestly i think ,everyone should do first aid training, for themselves & family. I lived in NZ 15 years ago. Had very high fever, my husband panicked & took me to hospital. I was lying there on the stretcher like thing waiting for a doctor to attend, for 2 hrs. I fell asleep or unconscious, i don't know, but the moment I came to senses...I asked my husband to help me back to the car & leave. Came back home & had my crocin every 4- 5 hours for the next 3 days. Started recovering myself, thankfully. Till date I have no idea of the diagnosis, as to what kind of fever I had. Medical system is worse in western countries. And really limited stuff can be done on board a flight.

[@TheLovekatal]

I was on flight Melbourne to India Delhi. Someone had an heart attack and and they were old couple, and they were returning after meeting their daughter Australia and when we all got to know the guy had a heart attack, I thought with hostels and pilots came. I had an argument with pilot, and then just flew past Malaysia, and returned to singapore and diverted to the singapore and Singa they took them off the plane, and then we flew back again to Delhi, and when we were landing, and my wife, was he said, they be in Trouble in INDIA at the airport , but the whole crew came to me and they said we have seen today that humanity is still alive and we need more people like you you

[@Blue_____Sky]

Such a tragedy. Feel so sorry for the family. This is a lesson to all of us to be prepared and get knowledge on how to deal with these medical situations.

[@shanupande8060]

I still feel that Asians weigh emotions over materialistic gain. Asian airlines might have dealt with the situation in much more sympathetic and emotional way.

[@krishankhurana6864]

I want to extend my deepest condolences to the family for their tragic loss. It's truly heartbreaking to hear about such a sad incident. While it's natural to hope for assistance during a medical emergency on a flight, we should also remember that airlines and flight attendants are not medical professionals. Expecting them to have the training and equipment of paramedics or to divert flights for medical emergencies can be logistically challenging and potentially impractical. Medical emergencies can happen anywhere, it could have been very well at home at night while he was sleeping; and it's important for passengers to be aware of the limitations when they travel. I think the lesson for the airline is to get perhaps a consent, like a waiver, where passengers understand that the airline may not be equipped to handle certain medical situations and the passengers waive all liabilities to the airline. Again, my thoughts are with the family during this difficult time. May their father rest in peace. Writing to officials and placing blame on the airline may not necessarily provide the closure or answers they seek. Ultimately, some aspects of life are beyond our control, and accepting this reality can be a source of strength and resilience. They've clarified that it's not about seeking compensation from the airline so let them clearly give this message and deny.

[@malapande2662]

So unfortunate incident and as a family member we are all shocked and in deep pain. We need justice.

[@krishankhurana6864]

Heartfelt condolences to the family for their loss. It's truly saddening to hear about the passing of their father during the flight. Kudos to the flight attendants and the crew of Air Canada for their dedication and professionalism. They did their utmost to help the passenger, even keeping him alive until the plane reached the gate, which is truly remarkable.It's crucial for passengers to respect and follow the instructions of flight attendants and the airline's protocols during a flight. Ridiculing or disregarding their guidance can lead to complications, and it's essential to trust their training and expertise. Additionally, passengers cannot approach the pilot to request a diversion as it's a security violation, and airline procedures and regulations are in place for safety and operational reasons. Regarding the use of social media and the flight's black box, it's important to understand their purposes. The black box is not meant for such incidents, and passengers can't request flight diversions through the pilot. In challenging times like this, sending a letter of thanks and appreciation to Air Canada would be a more constructive approach, acknowledging the hard work and dedication of the airline staff. Our thoughts are with the family during this difficult time.

[@suneelmehra6004]

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. It's a simple principle of medicine - Time is Muscle (heart muscle). Based on this, conversation, it looks like for the airline Time was Money. The discussion is eye opening and shows the lack of compassion and competency of crew. The knowledge of the crew to manage the situation seems to lack basic training for first aid, especially the crew not knowing about the role of taking vitals and the role of ORS (mixture of sugar, salt, and water). What shocked me was that the crew were not trained for simple things like measuring BP. Scared to fly AC in the future. Our prayers for departed soul. RIP 🙏🏻

[@prasunranjan4959]

Air Canada showed a very callous attitude and must be sued for this utter negligence. Condolences to the family 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@kaurkaur5744]

This is what all these big companies do. Not care about someone’s life . Shame on the management and crew for not knowing what to do in that situation. Also there should be a doctor on Board the whole time during the flight, that should be a protocol. Airlines are making so much money at-least they can pay a doctor. Very heartbreaking that someone lost their father like this .

[@shanupande8060]

Only request is to sign & share the petition as much as possible and boycott Air Canada. Have heard that they have done this to many other people too. Never fly Air Canada even if you get a free ticket. It could be anyone in my dear dad‘s place next time. Thank you.🙏

Air Canada is not a good airline. At least they should have announced and asked for a doctor on board. How irresponsible of them. Our friend who suffered a heart attack on a different airline, was taken to Russia. Aircraft was diverted to Russia. There, he was given medical attention and he survived.
