Meg Butler May 21, 2018
A passenger has died after falling from the mezzanine level to the baggage claim level at Terminal 3 of San Francisco International Airport. Authorities have not yet revealed how the man happened to fall or his identity. However, witnesses describe him as a man in his late 50s to early 60s.
The incident is still under investigation.

A silly Headline about a poor soul that probably decided to end his life combined with a non sense complain letter and 1st of April already over...
Athens airport has a MAXIMUM local restriction of 70 lbs/31.5 Kg per bag, which applies to ALL airlines that fly there....…..most airports will allow excess weight, of 50-99 lbs., for an overweight bag fee(which varies). ATH does not allow any bags over that weight limit, EVEN if you wanted to pay for a bag over 70lbs. Even if it was 84kg divided evenly between two bags, that would be 42kg per bag, which is still more than the 31.5 that ATH allows. Not buying that story whatsoever!
Yet another deceptive headline. The fact that it was into a baggage claim area has nothing to do with it. He died when he fell/jumped from a mezzanine. I was expecting to find that someone got caught in the baggage claim belt and was mangled to death. Sigh.
Reading the complete story "The San Mateo County Coroner's Office has identified the man as 53-year-old Dale Finn of South San Francisco, and have ruled his death as a suicide." So, despite the FT headline, he did not "fall"............
Let me get this straight. You paid 6700 Euros in excess baggage in order to fly a domestic flight in Greece? 84 KG is quite a bit. Why did you not simply refuse to pay the fee and fly later? For a lot less money you could have easily found a way to get the luggage there for far less than 6700 How much luggage did you have? Weight? This doesn't make sense. You had 84 KG excess but they didn't tell you this at check in?
