ST. JOHN'S, N.L. - An Air France jet had to make an emergency stop in St. John's, N.L., overnight after a passenger died onboard.
The plane was on its way to Paris when a 41-year-old man became sick and died. The flight touched down at about 2 a.m. today at the St. John's International Airport, where the man's body was taken off.
Newfoundland medical examiners are now investigating the man's cause of death.

Looks like it was AF 341 YUL-CDG, an A340-300, should be in Paris by now:
