Woman Gives Birth 35,000 Feet In The Air On An Emirates Flight. It’s Miraculous

The Emirates flight, flying 35,000 feet above sea level, welcomed a little miracle. A woman went into labour as she was flying to Dubai from Japan’s Tokyo, and the plane was mid-air when this incident occurred. The mother and the child received appropriate medical assistance after they landed in Dubai. The stork appears to have considered delivering this wonderful news in the air itself.

Woman Gives Birth On An Emirates Flight Mid AIr

Emirates Flight EK319 was on its way from Japan’s Narita International Airport in Tokyo to Dubai. The flight to Dubai was a 12-hour nonstop flight. The flight departed from Tokyo at 10:31 pm and arrived in Dubai at 5:44 am (UAE time). A woman went into labor, and the crew of the flight responded very swiftly to help her. 

According to some of the passengers who were on board, the crew calmly yet quickly acted and handled the situation. She was assisted by the crew while the flight continued on schedule and landed safely in Dubai. Both the passenger and the baby were in good and stable condition during the flight. The duo were taken for medical assistance as soon as the plane landed in Dubai.

Emirates Crew Are Trained For Such Medical Emergencies

This quick and calm action by the crew of Emirates totally shows its commitment to the safety and well-being of its passengers. The cabin crew of Emirates is given proper training to handle such sudden medical emergencies. These emergencies include childbirth, heart attacks, and more. 

Giving birth on a plane is not an uncommon occurrence, as many women have done in the past. The reasons have either been unexpected issues or medical complications. Women are not permitted to fly after a certain point in their pregnancy. In December 2022, a woman who gave birth to a child on the KLM Royal Dutch flight that went to Amsterdam from Guyaquil, Ecuador, did not even know that she was expecting. 

This was not the very first time that a woman gave birth on an Emirates flight. In the year 2020, in May, a woman on a repatriation flight gave birth to a child. The flight flew from Dubai to Lagos.
