A baby girl was delivered onboard IndiGo’s Bengaluru-Jaipur flight (6E 469) on Wednesday. A doctor passenger on board this flight, assisted by the cabin crew, helped the woman who went in labour during the journey deliver the baby.
“Jaipur airport was immediately informed to arrange for a doctor and an ambulance on arrival. Both the baby and mother are stable,” said the airline in a statement.
“Dr Subahana Nazir, who helped deliver the baby, was welcomed into the arrival hall and a thank you card was handed over by our Jaipur staff. Great teamwork by all our staff concerned,” the airline added.
Last October, a baby was delivered on IndiGo’s Delhi-Bengaluru flight with the help of a doctor who happened to be on board, ably assisted by the cabin crew.
Some airlines abroad have in the past given a lifetime of free travel for babies born on their flight. It remains to be seen if Indian carriers do the same.
