Trying to book a flight to get my mom cross country for Delivery?

loki_only1 asked:


I’m in california, my mom is in Virginia. We’re trying to book a flight so she can be here for (or real close to) time of delivery. The problem is – the window of possible delivery is so big… Does “birth” count as an emergency illness to get the discount last-minute airfare? Anyone else had this problem – or found a different solution?

I know inducing is an option, but we dont want to do that.
Some have “serious illness” discounts, and they very basically define it as “needing emergency hospitalization”… isnt that – technically – what delivery is?
The window is so large because the baby is large for her age and really cramped in there – and a lot of people think she might be early. But since its my first child, statistically – shes going to be late. So between 37 and 42 weeks – thats a big window!!
