A 58-year old woman died this morning aboard a US Airways flight from Honolulu to Phoenix as the plane descended into Sky Harbor International Airport, officials said.
The woman was identified as Terrie Wu.
According to the Arizona Republic, Wu was traveling with a relative on the red-eye overnight flight, US Airways flight 693, and died about an hour before the plane landed at 7 a.m. Phoenix time.
Firefighters and medical personnel were at the airport waiting when officials from Sky Harbor called in the emergency and said a woman had lost consciousness aboard the incoming flight.
She was pronounced dead at the scene.
A medical examiner’s report is pending.
