"We are aware of the very sad news that a young child passed away at Hyderabad International Airport this morning," the airline said in a statement.

A spokesperson for Qatar Airways told AFP that the baby was an 11-month-old boy who had been on the flight with his parents in the early hours of Wednesday.

He was taken to the city's Apollo hospital.

"We're waiting for investigations to conclude and for official reports from both Qatar Airways and Apollo hospitals on the baby's death," Sangeetha C R said.
The hospital was not immediately available for comment when contacted by AFP.
