After a woman unexpectedly gave birth, a KLM flight headed for the Netherlands made an emergency landing in Spain with an additional passenger on board.
The unidentified woman was reportedly taken to the front galley, where she gave birth to a girl who was born prematurely. Following that, the plane made an emergency landing in Barcelona, where medical personnel were awaiting its arrival.
It was reported that the mother and daughter were doing well.
Marjan Rozemeijer, a KLM spokeswoman, stated on Tuesday:
“I can confirm that a baby was born on the KL 588 on its way from Lagos to Amsterdam, Due to privacy reasons I cannot make any further statements on the birth.”
