Btw, please stay away from the London - Dublin and London - Calgary routes in Feb, March and April.

On my last Calgary to London flight it was because they were calling over the announcement system for medical assistance in the middle of the night and everyone noticed some commotion in the forward section so they announced the reason for it when we were about to land that a man had died overnight due to a medical complication. That's probably up to the discretion of the Captain as well. I'm sure a lot of the time, they don't want to alarm passengers or the Captain just decides not to announce it for whatever reason he has.
On my other flight to Asia, there was a huge delay with getting passengers off the plane and the Captain explained he felt compelled to give us the explanation and that was because the plane had met an ambulance and medical crew on the tarmac so we had to wait an hour or two on the plane after landing before we could disembark because of the medical team and eventual moving of the body.
