At about 8 p.m. on July 6, China Eastern Airlines flight MU2314 Xining-Xi'an was boarding, and the ground service staff brought several special passengers accompanied by medical staff, the doctor carried the infusion bag, and at the other end of the infusion tube was a 1-year-old baby held by the grandmother, accompanied by the child's aunt. It is understood that the child was accidentally cut by a tool at home 4 hours ago, and his right wrist was broken, and he needed to urgently go to Xi'an for amputated limb replantation surgery.
Because the baby needs to be infusion all the time during the flight, in the special environment of the cabin, the child's wounds, the hanging and placement of the infusion bag, and the preservation of severed limbs, purser Zhang Miaomiao arranged for passengers to sit and rest, and immediately reported the situation to the captain, which kicked off a race between life and time. Almost at the same time, the captain received a notice from the relevant departments that the flight was to transport the amputated baby, and asked the crew to fully cooperate to land safely as quickly as possible to ensure that the child was sent to the hospital for surgery in time.
In order to facilitate the suspension of the infusion bag, the flight crew cooperated with the medical staff to change the seats of the passengers, using the on-board medical auxiliary panel hooks above the seats, as well as lead seals, ropes and other objects to help fix the child's infusion bottles to ensure the stability of the child's infusion throughout the process, and at the same time assist the medical staff to place the ice cubes in three layers of ice packs to refrigerate the baby's severed limbs. In order to better take care of the child, the purser arranged for flight attendant Yang Le to accompany him throughout the whole process, monitor the baby's infusion and physical condition, and other flight attendants performed their own duties to do a good job in cabin service and control.
At the same time, all support units of China Eastern Airlines are busy communicating and confirming online and offline, whether the flight has taken off, and whether the Xi'an ground ambulance is in place... The control units of the route have also coordinated to give priority to the flight, striving to let it reach Xi'an as soon as possible.
After the plane took off, the cabin crew observed that the little passengers' mental and physical signs were in good condition, so they helped the passengers sort out their carry-on baggage items to ensure that they rushed to the hospital faster after landing.
During the flight, the ground service staff of China Eastern Airlines in Xi'an were also busy making preparations, coordinating and arranging the pick-up of the disabled lift car, and ensuring that the personnel were waiting in the parking position in advance. Ambulances are also already waiting on the tarmac.
At 21:42 on the same day, the flight landed in Xi'an 18 minutes earlier than originally planned, and the purser broadcast told all passengers to stay in place and not to get up, not to carry their luggage, and to open the road of love for the baby to get off the plane for medical assistance first.
After the hatch opened, the airport emergency personnel and China Eastern Airlines ground service personnel rushed to the plane, and the flight attendants carefully escorted the child off the plane to ensure the stability of the child's body when disembarking, and smoothly drove to the hospital by ambulance.
