Question

If a person is born on a plane, what is that person's nationality?

Answer 1

they are forever and always the sole property of united airlines.

Answer 2

I believe there are more times that this question is asked here on ANSWERS  per week than times a child has been born on a plane since  the first commercial flight occured!  Very few countries give citizenship, just because a child was born in their territory.  The  citizenship of the parents prevails.

Answer 3

GOOD QUESTION

Answer 4

unlucky

Answer 5

It's whatever the mother's nationality or citizenship is.

Answer 6

Wherever the mother's is.  Also, if the father is from another country as a citizen, the child could file for duel citizenship.  The child MAY even be able to do this for the country the plane left from, but I'm not sure....?  Probly depends on the country...hope this helps!

Answer 7

Almost impossible question to answer without knowing the countries involved.

Whatever the citizenship the parents of this child have, it differs from country to country. Some countries give the child the mothers citizenship, some go by the country the child is born in, and some go by the father. Sometimes the child will get dual nationality if applying for it. And I guess it depends on which country the plane is flying over at the time and their laws!
