Here’s a question. If your child is born at 42,000 feet in international skies, what citizenship can she claim?
The mother of a newborn baby is about to find out after she gave birth mid-flight on a Turkish Airlines flight Friday. The plane was bound for Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso from Conakry, Guinea on Friday.
The woman, who was reportedly 28 weeks pregnant, started going into labor shortly after takeoff. Flight attendants jumped into action, enlisting the aid of some nearby passengers to help with the delivery.
“The mother gave birth while standing, and we received help from several other passengers,” said one of the flight attendants, Bouthayna Inanir, according to UK publication, The Sun.
