The Turkish Airlines CEO has criticized the British ambassador to Ankara over the U.K.'s ban on carrying electronic devices inflight from airports in Turkey following the envoy's congratulatory tweet on a baby who was born mid-air onboard the flagship carrier.

A woman successfully gave birth to a healthy baby girl during a Turkish Airlines (THY) flight to Istanbul late on April 7.   

Diaby Nafi, the passenger who gave birth on board, had not appeared to be nine months pregnant and had not told the airline or crew of her condition, according to cabin crew.
