“‘Exemplary’ and ‘calm’ were the words Captain Chris Nye used for Flight Attendant Diana Giraldo’s heroic task of delivering a baby recently mid-flight. The baby couldn’t wait, so the early and unexpected labor took place on a flight from Denver International Airport to Orlando International Airport (MCO). Diana helped the mother to the back lavatory and assisted the mother in giving birth. ‘Diana again went above and beyond after the completion of the flight to coordinate our return to Orlando,’ Chris said,” they wrote.

The airlines also added one more quote from the captain. “‘The whole crew really did a great job. 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. This was a job well done, and I was happy to see everyone working together to successfully deliver a newborn on an aircraft!’ said Chris,” they added.

Take a look at the share:

The post, since being shared, has gathered over 2,000 reactions and the numbers are only increasing. The share has also prompted people to post various kinds of comments.

Congratulations to the new Mom!!!” commented a third. “Great job, to the whole crew, but especially Diana! I always enjoy flying with you,” expressed a fourth.
