Two nurses from Carnival Breeze helped deliver an early Father’s Day gift Saturday when another passenger went into labor on an Emirates flight from London to Manila.

Nurses Christine Anne and John — last names not immediately available — were being repatriated from Carnival Breeze when they responded to an announcement asking for medical personnel to assist in an in-flight situation at 37,000 feet.

Mother and baby are fine

Mother and baby girl were reported as doing fine. The baby's name is Sky.

Christine Anne and John were supposed to be on another flight a few days earlier but, in this case, the delay seemed to work out for the best.

Carnival Cruise Line expressed its pride and appreciation for Christine Anne and John.
