“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," Pilot Chris Nye said. "This was a job well done, and I was happy to see everyone working together to successfully deliver a newborn on an aircraft!"
The airline said the mother gave her newborn daughter the middle name Sky.
