Fisher, 60, was aboard an 11-hour flight from London to Los Angeles on Friday when she went into cardiac arrest, reported People magazine.
"I am shocked and saddened to hear the news about my dear friend. Our thoughts are with Carrie, her family and friends," Ford said.
In her latest book "The Princess Diarist" Fisher revealed that she and Ford had a whirlwind love affair on the set of the 1977 "Star Wars" film.
"It's been 40 years!I didn't say anything to anybody for years but it's not like anyone's deeply affected by it anymore," the actress had previously said about spilling the secret of the real-life love between Han Solo and Princess Leia.
