Brazil Plane Crash: Adriano Assis was supposed to be on the ill-fated flight that crashed and killed 62 on board in São Paulo. As fate had it, this man narrowly escaped a tragic plane crash. He revealed how missing the flight turned out to be a life-saving stroke of luck.
Assis, who was scheduled to board the Voepass flight that crashed, initially thought he was catching a Latam flight. When he arrived at the airport, he waited for boarding announcements that never came. He then realized that he was at the wrong gate. He then hurried to the Voepass gate but was turned away by a staff member. Assis admitted to having argued with the employee, but in hindsight, he now credits this staff member with saving his life.
This man wasn’t allowed to board the plane that just crashed in Vinhedo in Sao Paulo, Brazil because he was LATE.
