A Miracle in the Skies: Baby Boy Born Aboard Hi Fly’s A330

A rare and extraordinary event unfolded aboard Hi Fly’s Airbus A330 CS-TCE on a flight from Dzaoudzi, Mayotte, to Nairobi, Kenya. A baby boy was delivered mid-flight, adding a touch of wonder to what began as an ordinary journey.

The crew and passengers worked together to assist the mother through a labor that began during the flight. Thanks to quick thinking and teamwork, the baby arrived safely, earning his place among a unique club of individuals born at cruising altitude.

Both mother and baby were reported to be in excellent health following the delivery. Upon arrival in Nairobi, the duo was met by medical personnel and transported to a local hospital for further care.

Births during flights are incredibly rare, with fewer than one in 26 million passengers estimated to experience labor mid-flight.
