Philippines Airlines passenger Aida Alamillo delivered a healthy baby boy mid-flight yesterday while en route to San Francisco with the help of three onboard nurses and several flight crew members. The baby was reportedly delivered at 3:25 p.m., four hours before the plane landed at SFO.
The flight purser's incident report stated that the baby, who was born pre-term at 35 weeks, appeared healthy -- his "skin color looked good," he "started to breastfeed," and gave a "loud cry," which was reportedly met with cheers from everyone onboard.
The airline transported mom and baby to Mills Peninsula Hospital upon landing in the Bay Area.
