The birth of a baby on board has forced a plane to make an unscheduled landing at Prague’s Vaclav Havel Airport. The machine was actually on its way from Birmingham to Bucharest. Despite the hasty change of course, the boy was born in the air.
A spokeswoman for the airport service tells the CTK news agency that mother and child are doing well. Both were taken to a clinic in Prague.
Congratulations via Twitter
The other passengers were able to continue their flight after the unforeseen stopover. Prague airport boss Jiri Pos wished the newborn good luck on Twitter.
A spokesman said the newborn boy weighed 2.75 kilograms and his mother was a Romanian who flew home from the UK.
