It happened over the weekend when a plane returned to the airport after taking off as a passenger on board had forgotten her baby at the airport.
Flight SV832, from Jeddah to Kuala Lampur, turned back after the mother told the crew that she had forgotten her baby in the boarding area at the terminal of the King Abdul Aziz International Airport.
A video went viral on social media showing the pilot requesting permission to head back to the airport, while talking to ATC operators - who were caught by surprise and were scampering around to figure out the protocol to be observed for such an incident.
