Mom of two dies after suddenly falling ill on American Airlines flight from Dominican Republic

An American mother of two died after suddenly falling ill on an American Airlines flight home from the Dominican Republic.

The 41-year-old woman — identified by a relative online only as an Indiana mother of two — was onboard American Airlines Flight 2790 from Punta Cana to Charlotte, North Carolina, on Wednesday when she suddenly became ill, the Royal Turks and Caicos Island Police Force said.

Flight crew tried to revive the woman as the plane was diverted to Providenciales International Airport in the Turks and Caicos for emergency medical help, police said.

A medical team met the flight just after 6 p.m. and took the woman to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead, police said, noting “a post-mortem will be conducted to ascertain cause of death.”

The passenger’s identity has not been released, but she was from central Indiana, according to Fox 59.

A woman on Facebook also identified the passenger as her sister-in-law.

“We are in disbelief and our hearts are broken,” Stephanie Quinn wrote in response to the police statement on Facebook.

Quinn described her sister-in-law as the only girl out of five siblings and the mother of two “beautiful children with big hearts and straight As.”

“She is still down there, so please take good care of her as she ventures home,” pleaded Quinn, who did not immediately respond to messages Friday.

It was not immediately clear if the dead woman had been flying with her kids or other family members.

Flight 2790 continued on to Charlotte the following day, a spokesperson for American Airlines told The Post.
