Twitter users were horrified at an airline’s tweet that told passengers where they are most likely to die on a plane.

‘According to data studies by Time, the fatality rate for the seats in the middle of the plane is the highest,’ KLM India posted.
‘However, the fatality rate for the seats in the front is marginally lesser and is least for seats at the rear third of a plane.’

The tweet was blasted as being ‘poor taste’, ‘morbid’ and ‘grossly unsettling’ and later removed by the airline who apologised.
