Frontier Airlines' announcement

It was the American airline itself, through a Facebook post, that announced the happy event. No delivery room, no midwife, just a bathroom and a'flight attendant Who performed a "heroic" deed. His name is Diana Giraldo, and her feat was called "exemplary and calm" by airplane captain Chris Nye, who stressed how good and brave Diana was in helping her mother give birth.

Due to the unexpected event, the U.S. company's flight had to take a detour by anticipating landing at Pensacola (Florida) airport, where a team of paramedics were ready. Only words full of satisfaction from Captain Chris Nye, who congratulated the entire crew on a job well done. Given the adventurous and special birth, the new mother chose the name "Sky" for the newcomer born in the skies of America. 

It may be a low-cost airline, but this time Frontiers Airlines did a top-notch job. 

Background

The one that just happened, however, is not the only case in which a baby came to light in the clouds. 

Last year, aboard a flight that took off from Salt Lake City and headed to Honululu, a woman in her seventh month of pregnancy suddenly went into labor. Finding the plane in the middle of the Pacific, the captain immediately asked if there was a doctor on board. Dr. Dale Glenn's answer was not long in coming. And with the help of a group of nurses from the neonatal ward, little Raymond came to light.

Another case was reported aboard the Indian Jet Airways. It was the year 2017, when aboard a plane that departed from the Saudi city of Dammam and headed to Kochi (in Keral), a woman gave birth. Again, the pregnancy was only in its seventh month. To celebrate and celebrate the birth that occurred aboard one of its planes, Jet Airways decided to award the newcomer a lifetime passes to fly for free with their company. 

Other companies have also decided to pay tribute to babies born aboard their planes. The Thai Airways, as well as the AirAsia, offer Free flights for life for those born on board, while Britain's Virgin Atlantic gave away free flights until the age of 21 to a baby born during one of its flights. 

What does it say on the passport of those born in flight?

Faced with such cases, the question arises: What does it say on the passports of these babies, under "place of birth?". Showa Owen, a "child of the skies," says that initially her passport carried the entry "born on an aircraft 10 miles south of Mayfield, Sussex." With the renewal, the entry was changed to: "At sea."  Instead, Johnathan, another baby born four months before Showa, also during a flight, bears the words, "born on a plane."
