He appeared to be travelling alone
Cabin crew desperately tried to resuscitate the passenger using a defibrillator, but he sadly passed away. Other passengers first alerted staff when the dark-haired man, believed to be in his 50s, wasn't waking up.
Most of those onboard Flight EZY8454 were travelling back home after holidaying in Paphos. The aircraft took off from the Greek island at 2.20pm local time . Concerns for the man's welfare were expressed to staff at roughly 3.40pm GMT. After another passenger in the window seat beside the man was helped out and given a new seat, staff set up the defibrillator at row 18. As colleagues desperately tried to restart his heart using the shock machine, a robotic voice from the device could be heard intermittently saying "breathe, breathe".
