A Korean Air jet was met at Kennedy Airport by emergency personnel on Sunday morning after the pilot sent word that a woman had died onboard.
The 64-year-old woman had died of natural causes aboard Flight 81 from Seoul, which landed at 11:20 a.m., said Steve Coleman, a Port Authority spokesman.
A representative for Korean Air did not immediately return a call for comment.
