I have had three passengers die on my flights. On one flight, there was no reasonable alternate, and he died before landing at destination. In the other two cases, we initiated diversions, but were able to turn back to our planned destination, once the passenger’s death was confirmed.

Landing because someone had died, simply makes no sense. It’s not as if they’re going to bring him back to life.
