An Italian woman who arrived late for the Air France plane flight that crashed in the Atlantic last week has been killed in a car accident.

Johanna Ganthaler, a pensioner from Bolzano-Bozen province, had been on holiday in Brazil with her husband Kurt and missed Air France Flight 447 after turning up late at Rio de Janeiro airport on May 31.

All 228 people aboard lost their lives after the plane crashed into the Atlantic four hours into its flight to Paris.

The ANSA news agency reported that the couple had managed to pick up a flight from Rio the following day.
 
It said that Ms Ganthaler died when their car veered across a road in Kufstein, Austria, and swerved into an oncoming truck. Her husband was seriously injured.

very sad. I hope her husband pulls through.   Makes me think of final destination.  Also, if you are interested read the comments.. a lively debate about god and your time to go vs simple coincidence kinda thing.

Yes, this story does remind me of the movie "Final Destination"...that woman was supposed to be on that plane that day.  She was fated to die that day, but didn't.  She cheated Death then, and Death got it's retribution.  Sorta scary... laughing
