Jackson Warne and partner Kiah Broadsmith caught up in horror India flight

Jackson Warne and his partner Kiah Broadsmith have been caught up in a long-haul flight nightmare which finally ended with an emergency landing in Calcutta in India.

Jackson Warne has revealed his shocking flight ordeal while travelling to India to be a special guest during the Indian Premier League.

Warne and his partner Kiah Broadsmith and some friends were on an Air India flight from Singapore when they had to make an emergency landing because a man died on the plane.

Warne originally flew with Singapore Airlines but due to a delay from Melbourne missed a connecting flight.

Instead of a 14 hour wait they booked a new flight.

“We managed to get on an Air India flight that night,’’ Jackson said on social media.

“But on the way there, something happened which I’ve never experienced on a flight before ever — you hear stories about it — but three rows behind us someone had a heart attack and... not confirmed a heart attack... but they were doing CPR for over an hour. Had to emergency land in Calcutta and were there for about 2-3 hours and then we made it to (our destination in) India.”

Jackson’s friend Gabriel ‘Gabe’ Chenkov-Shaw described it as “like a movie” in his trauma dump video posted to social media.

“I don’t know if this is the weirdest and saddest thing to happen while catching a flight,’’ he said.

“I get tapped on the shoulder at like 2am to say someone three rows behind you has literally just died.

“The plane was in absolute hysterics, I’ve never seen anything like it, it was something out of a movie. They start asking who are the doctors on the plane.. made emergency landing in some random spot in India ... they have no (in-flight) entertainment whatsover, my phone was flat so just staring at the next person’s seat in front of me for 16 hours straight.”

Jackson is in India with the Rajasthan Royals — the team his late spin king father Shane Warne led to the IPL title in 2008.
