Polar expert Sarah Auffret died on the flight as she made her way to Nairobi to talk about a Clean Seas project, her Norway-based employers Association of Arctic Expedition Cruise Operators said. “Sarah was on her way to Nairobi to talk about the Clean Seas project in connection with the UN Environment Assembly this week,” an AECO statement said. We have lost a true friend and beloved colleague.” Initial reports had suggested that seven Britons were on board the plane but the Foreign and Commonwealth Office said on Monday that nine citizens had died.
