A WOMAN has given birth while flying to New Zealand from Western Samoa but left the baby behind on the plane after it landed in Auckland, authorities said.
An Auckland Airport spokeswoman said it was not known if other passengers and crew on the Pacific Blue flight noticed the woman was in labour and "the baby was found on the aircraft" after landing this morning, NZPA reported.

Police were called when the plane landed shortly before 7am (5am AEDT) and took mother and child to hospital.

They were reported to be in good health, NZPA said.
