3 days agoThe family of a Qatar Airways passenger who died after choking during his flight is suing the airline
Asoka Jayaweera was flying from Los Angeles to Sri Lanka, via Doha, in August 2023, according to the lawsuit filed by his son in a California court last Friday. About two and a half hours into the 15-hour flight, the meal service began. Jayaweera, a "strict vegetarian," was told that the airline didn't have any vegetarian meals left, the complaint says. It alleges that he was instead given a regular meal and told to "eat around" the meat.
