An Italian woman has been killed in a car crash only days after she narrowly avoided being a victim of the Air France plane crash.
Johanna Ganthaler missed the Air France flight which crashed into the Atlantic
Johanna Ganthaler and her husband Kurt were on holiday in Brazil and were supposed to take Air France flight 447 back to Paris.
But they missed the doomed flight and decided to take a different flight home to Europe instead.
All 228 people onboard the Air France flight were killed when it crashed in the Atlantic.
But the two pensioners had barely managed to digest the terrible tragedy they had managed to avoid when they involved in a car accident.
Their vehicle crashed after veering across a road in Kufstein, Austria, according to the Italian news agency ANSA.
The car swerved into an oncoming truck and Mrs Ganthaler was killed.
Her husband was seriously injured.
Mrs Ganthaler was from the Italian province of Bolzano-Bozen.
