SINGAPORE – A Singapore Airlines (SIA) air stewardess was found dead in a San Francisco hotel room on Tuesday (Jan 31, US time), several hours before she was to depart from the city on the return leg of a long-haul flight, according to a source.
Penang-born Vanessa Yeap, 38, was a leading stewardess on a flight from Singapore to San Francisco with a stopover at Hong Kong, according to a cabin crew member who wished to remain anonymous.
According to the source, who was not on the same flight, Ms Yeap said she was not feeling well when cabin crew arrived in San Francisco – likely about two days before the return flight.
