Given the current situation of the world, it is impossible to get through airport security without a flight ticket, but one passenger managed to do the impossible.

Say hello to Kadiju, a little baby girl who was born on a Turkish Airlines flight from Guinea’s capital of Conakry to Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

On April 7, 2017, Nafi Diaby, who was 28 weeks pregnant went into labour shortly after takeoff. The cabin crew then rushed to help Nafi deliver the baby. Turkish Airlines also took to Twitter to announce the news.

According to the Turkish Airlines website, expectant mothers are allowed to board a flight up to their 28th week of pregnancy without a doctor's note, from week 28- week 35, a doctor's note is required and women who are beyond 36 weeks pregnant are barred from flying.

Nafi and her baby girl were both in good health and were taken to a hospital immediately upon landing in Burkina Faso.
