Plane forced to turn around

A plane had to turn around and go back to the airport after a mum claimed she left her baby at the terminal.

The Saudi Airlines flight had left Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

But the mother reportedly demanded she be be reunited with her child, whom she left back in the Saudi Arabia terminal.

Audio captures the pilot asking air traffic controllers for permission to return to the airport.

In the baffling clip, the pilot is heard asking air traffic control staff: "May God be with us. Can we come back or what?"

“This flight is requesting to come back…a passenger forgot her baby in the waiting area, the poor thing.”
