'I was happy to see everyone working together to successfully deliver a newborn on an aircraft!”
“The whole crew really did a great job,” said Captain Chris Nye. “I transferred controls and flying duties to my First Officer as I coordinated the diversion. Dispatch did a great job as well by suggesting Pensacola Airport and getting a gate and paramedics ready for us.”
Flight Attendant Diana Giraldo, who, Nye said, remained composed during the urgent situation, ushered the woman to the lavatory and helped her deliver the child thousands of feet in the air. “This was a job well done, and I was happy to see everyone working together to successfully deliver a newborn on an aircraft!” said Nye.
