A woman aboard a Jet Airways flight gave birth to a baby boy somewhere between Dammam, Saudi Arabia, and Mumbai, India, on Sunday morning. The Jet Airways aircraft was originally scheduled to land in Kochi, India, but diverted its path to for an emergency landing in Mumbai — over 930 miles north of Kochi — once the woman went into labor. “The baby was born around 8.45 a.m., while the flight landed at Mumbai at 9.12,” a source at the airport told the site. Jet Airways has responded to the news by gifting the newborn with free tickets for life, as he was reportedly the first baby born on one of their aircrafts. The airline also tweeted this photo in response to the situation:“Jet Airways commends its crew for their response and promptness that saw them successfully translate their training into life-saving action,” said Jet Airways in a statement obtained by BBC.com.
