- MaxxusFlamus, on 10/27/2009, -1/+175where as American airlines will charge the family for the extra seat...
- slyphin, on 10/27/2009, -1/+94arent you not supposed to fly in your third trimester?
- WELLDOITLIVE, on 10/27/2009, -4/+90If I get someone pregnant on a plane can I have free flights for life too?
- digitalArtform, on 10/27/2009, -1/+64Good luck collecting on that.
"Yeah, I'm the baby from the flight! Remember the news? Back in 2009? The guy said I could fly for free forever. No, I'm serious. Look, here's a printout from digg" - Lucas123, on 10/27/2009, -4/+63And, he grows up to be an airline pilot - negating all his free flights. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?
- Lucas123, on 10/27/2009, -8/+62Dude. It's AirAsia. They fly to Bangladesh, Cambodia, Laos and Indonesia. They allow livestock onboard.
- Pinkertinkle, on 10/27/2009, -2/+51Don't worry, you'll never get anyone pregnant on a plane.
- eastwood24, on 10/27/2009, -3/+52Yah, it's like an old man that turned ninety-eight. He won the lottery and died the next day...
- Hyperian, on 10/27/2009, -1/+42Yea, American airlines would so do that, probably then sue the women for diverting the flight afterwards
- EddiePotato, on 10/27/2009, -0/+38This is going to start a very bad trend.
- NeuralNetwork, on 10/27/2009, -1/+32Since the mom's name is Liew Siaw Hsia and the airline is called AirAsia its only fitting that the baby be called : Air Hsia
- DarkMatter911, on 10/27/2009, -1/+25How about giving the people that had to deal with his & his mothers crying & screaming free flights for life and billing the mother.
- doublsh0t, on 10/27/2009, -1/+24beats having to survive a plane crash and an island full of smoke monsters and..."others"...to get free flights once you finally get back home.
- Brad324, on 10/27/2009, -1/+22first, you have to reach 1st base.
Baby steps. - Gr00ver, on 10/27/2009, -5/+23It's a black fly in your Chardonnay..
- diggopolous, on 10/27/2009, -4/+19I gave birth to a giant turd on an Air India flight. Are we eligible?
- lex0429, on 10/27/2009, -3/+18A no smoking sign on your cigarette break
- noahgelman, on 10/27/2009, -1/+15He was born from a Malaysian woman and both Penang and Kuching are cities in Malaysia so he obviously has Malaysian citizenship
- fohf, on 10/27/2009, -1/+15And most of them aren't even that unfortunate just kind of a little irritating.
- S2000, on 10/27/2009, -3/+17It's like RAYYYY-EEE-AAAINNN on your wedding day.
- Rfriaz, on 10/27/2009, -3/+17It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife
- swagv, on 10/27/2009, -0/+13...Right after mom pays the additional $50 luggage surcharge.
- jtens, on 10/27/2009, -0/+13If only being born in a hospital meant you get free healthcare for life.
- pikpikcarrotmon, on 10/27/2009, -1/+13you could have shortened that to:
"Don't worry, you'll never get any" - Izz1011, on 10/27/2009, -0/+12And if you read the Snopes article, it says that in this case it is true.
- ChromaVita, on 10/27/2009, -1/+13They really give out 5 free flights? That's kind of a dick move. It's not even an even number. (Which is probably the point.)
- diiii, on 10/27/2009, -0/+12Yes. Your turd flies free for the rest of its life. Hope you saved it.
- canadabluesfan, on 10/27/2009, -3/+15***** American Airlines
- shadowspawn, on 10/27/2009, -3/+14It's a death-row pardon two minutes too late
- pikpikcarrotmon, on 10/27/2009, -0/+11if you take baby steps to 1st base they'll tag you out
- smashblu, on 10/27/2009, -0/+11It does if it's not an American hospital :\
- pjpete, on 10/27/2009, -5/+15None of these things are ironic, just unfortunate.
- krazykayaker, on 10/27/2009, -0/+9Great, now everyone's gonna want to join the "New Mile High Club"
- Spinzy, on 10/27/2009, -0/+9why do people find it impossible to believe that a commercial gesture can be a good one.. are you american or something? (just joking... but really, why not?)
- Awwzm, on 10/27/2009, -0/+9Free flights for the lifetime of AirAsia.
- Digger1123, on 10/27/2009, -1/+97+ mile high club technically.
- Spinzy, on 10/27/2009, -0/+7that actually says "EVERY baby born in-flight..."
the only reason you weren't dugg down is because people like to be contrary. - dsmatrix, on 10/27/2009, -0/+7Yes of course, because that would do wonders for your personal development.
- zeazzz, on 10/27/2009, -0/+6Good thing this didn't happen 30 years ago on a train.
"Tickets? I don't see a ticket for that child!" - ldsan, on 10/27/2009, -0/+6***** the RIAA and Glenn Beck and child-proof cigarette lighters with cartoon wrappings on them
- TheBlargh, on 10/27/2009, -0/+6"For the record, there is no truth to this obligatory lifetime pass thing (although if you read down to the end you'll see some have been granted, each on a different foreign airline)."
All it says is that it doesn't necessarily mean that you will have lifetime pass. - yacks, on 10/27/2009, -0/+6which is closing down next month...
- yacks, on 10/27/2009, -0/+6Actually that Snopes does NOT say this incident is fake... it is saying the belief that if you give birth in flight that you automatically receive free airfare for life is not true.... The airline can decide if they want to or not... in this case, AirAsia decided to..
there's enough news articles about this to make me think this case is true.
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5 ... - ldsan, on 10/27/2009, -4/+10it's that time when you were 6 years old and uncle jim came in your room late at night while he was staying at the house after he got out of prison just until he could get back on his feet and touched you as he softly hummed the tune to good-bye horses
- ifruit, on 10/27/2009, -1/+7They should be banned from the airline for all future flights. Why fly when you are so pregnant?
- Pinkertinkle, on 10/27/2009, -0/+6Is this like 5 free flights a year for the rest of their lives or really unlimited?
- sab0tage, on 10/27/2009, -0/+5Stuff that, I am digging him down because he has tried to be a smart-arse and failed miserably, he should be punished for not actually reading his source!
- sghod1212, on 10/27/2009, -1/+6In these situations, the baby is of the country reached first IIRC.
- FallenTurtles, on 10/27/2009, -0/+5That is, if the island allows you to leave.
- PolarBearFire, on 10/27/2009, -2/+7Is the offer still valid when the airline gets bankrupt or gets bought up? Cool perk but I think it's a bad idea to encourage people to have babies on planes. It's bound to end up bad someday.
