MADRID - The sudden death of a passenger forced an Air Europa plane to return to the Spanish capital 90 minutes after taking off for Cuba, airport sources said Thursday.

A 46-year-old woman suffered a heart attack on board the Boeing 763 Wednesday.

The passengers disembarked while the body was removed from the aircraft. It resumed its flight towards Havana six hours later.
