The baby in her mother's arm.

An American woman gave birth in an airplane bathroom after she experienced sudden labour on a flight from Denver to Orlando, USA.

According to the American "Frontier Airlines," the woman who was on one of its flights, was surprised by labour, and a flight attendant took her to the plane's bathroom, and helped her to deliver her baby safely.

The American "Fox News" website said that pilot Chris Nye diverted the plane’s course to Pensacola Airport in Florida, to transport the mother and her child to the hospital, and then continued on his way to Orlando.

The site stated that children who are born on board a plane, get many privileges as the company offers them free flights, which their families can benefit from.

The pilot noted after the plane landed, "Our entire crew did a really great job."
