Mr Ring told Channel Nine’s Current Affair programme, external that staff had responded “in no time” when the woman collapsed, but that “unfortunately the lady couldn’t be saved, which was pretty heart-breaking to watch”.
He said the cabin crew had tried to move her body towards business class “but she was quite a large lady and they couldn’t get her through the aisle”.
Mr Ring said the crew had seen seats were available beside him.
“They said, ‘Can you move over please?’ and I just said, ‘Yes no problem’.
“Then they placed the lady in the chair I was in.”
While Ms Colin was able to move to an empty seat nearby, Mr Ring said he had not been given the option to do so by cabin crew – even though there were vacant seats.
When the plane landed four hours later, he said passengers were asked to stay put while medical staff and police came on board.
He said ambulance officers had then started pulling blankets off the woman and he had seen her face.
