Handy out!
Flying can be stressful at the best of times. If you're a nervous flyer, even watching a plane in the sky can put fear through your whole body.
There's something about having no control while soaring thousands of feet up that can induce panic.
Something else over which you have no control is when you give birth. Whether you're mid-mass or mid-match, when the day finally arrives there is no delaying the process.
So, the same goes if you're mid-flight.
A Jet Airways customer was on her way from Dammam in Saudi Arabia to Kochi, India on Sunday when the little baby boy she was pregnant with decided that he was ready to enter the world.
According to the
Independent, the flight was diverted to Mumbai after his mother went into labour and thanks to a speedy reaction from the cabin crew and a trained paramedic onboard, the baby was born healthy just before the Boeing 737 touched the ground.

His parents were surely on cloud nine when they brought the little baba into the world and while he was a fantastic gift for them to get on Father's Day, the little new-born also got a present of his own.
Whether he is a nervous passenger or a confident flyer, one thing he will not have to stress out about is getting flight tickets as Jet Airways announced shortly after his birth that he would be receiving free complimentary flights for life following his arrival.
