EasyJet passengers have spoken of their shock after a British woman collapsed and died on a flight from Gatwick, Mirror reported.

The 64-year-old woman, who has since been named as Ann Rudkin, is said to have slumped in her chair as the plane came into land at Malaga, Spain.

She is said to have told other passengers that she was suffering with a chest infection picked up on a Caribbean cruise holiday.

One Brit couple, who now live in Marbella, spoke of the horror moment the woman collapsed in her seat.

They said the crew tried to use a defibrillator to resuscitate Ann but sadly she could not be saved.
