We love a good pregnancy reveal story, and the fact that this one takes place at 10,000 metres makes it all the sweeter.

Mum-to-be Lisa Sadiwynk recently boarded a plane from Las Vegas to Philadelphia with her husband, and she decided it was high (geddit?) time to let him know he was due to become a dad.

After doing the usual announcements about flight time and weather, the American Airlines pilot on Lisa and Eric's plane told the passengers it was "time to have a little fun."

Calling out Eric's seat number and name, he then explained what was going on.

"Well Eric although you didn’t strike it rich here in Las Vegas you did hit the jackpot. Congratulations, you’re about to be a dad!"

Reports are suggesting that Wills paid for the flight himself but was surrounded by his security entourage.
