The birth certificate will be very interesting where it says place of birth!

WHAT AN IGNORANT RED-NECKED, CRACKER BITCH!!!
It would seem that when dealing with third-world pregnant female passengers, with or without US passports, BA should be a little more cautious about letting them on the airplane since these women's level of understanding of their own condition is so woefully inadequate.

Good going - 5 hours into the flight and she still popped it before landing.
Always said this childbirth thingy was a piece of cake...
Wonder if the baby get free upgrades for life?

Also mystified as to why she was allowed onboard at her advance stage of pregnancy. My daughter could not fly after the 7th month domestically which at most is a five hour flight.

Are not the planes, the territory of the registering country, like ships? I suspect that the plane is British territory while in the air.

I rather like that they shifted other people into first class to give her more room
but sticking place of birth should be interesting on the passport
