A Baby Born Mid-Air On A Flight From Saudi Arabia Is Now Being Called A ‘Little Miracle’
They say great things normally come unannounced and in small sizes.
Well, the cabin crew of a Pakistan International Airlines flight, travelling from Madinah to Multan on December 12, were definitely in for a surprise when a passenger went into labour mid-flight.
The staff had to step in to deliver the child, and the airlines are now calling the baby their ‘little miracle.’
“Miracles happen everyday”

While the details surrounding the parents and the mother’s pregnancy is not clear, the newborn was described as a ‘beautiful baby girl’ by the crew.
And rightly so, just look at her….she is cute as a button!
The baby and mother are both healthy and in stable condition, according to the airlines.
Smitten by the new arrival
She opened her eyes to the blue skies! PIA made a new friend today. On request of her parents, the cabin crew named her ‘Jannat’.

The cabin crew seemed so enamoured by this little bundle of joy, they even named her ‘Jannat’ (meaning heaven in Urdu).
Congratulations to both mother and the airlines for successfully delivering the child.
