A 30-year-old British man died in an incident at an airport terminal in southwest Turkey before he was to fly back to Britain, his airline said Wednesday. Turkish media reports said that the man fell to his death from the gate at Dalaman airport on Tuesday morning following a dispute with the Jet2 airline's crew.
The British budget carrier confirmed that one of its passengers had died at the airport "following an incident inside the terminal". "Contrary to some reports, we can confirm that the customer was not injured on our aircraft or in the vicinity of our aircraft," it said, saying it would not give further comment while the investigation continues.
