Born to fly, baby gets 1,000,000 miles

Paul Heymont 8/22/162:00 PM

A baby born a week ago Sunday on a Cebu Pacific flight from Dubai to Manila is starting life with another unusual distinction: She's already a million-miler frequent flier, with the airline gifting her the points as a birthday present.

Named Haven, she arrived a few weeks prematurely, on board the aircraft. The plane made an unscheduled stop in Hyderabad, India, so that mother and child could get full medical care.

Cebu, a Manila-based discount carrier, took advantage of the occasion to take to social media with the story as well. Full details, from USA TODAY, HERE
