No, but it is a sign that the amniotic sac is now ruptured, and that the baby is at risk for a variety of infections.

Additionally, women who've had previous children almost always have dramatically shorter periods of labor. Sometimes breathtakingly short.

A woman giving birth on a plane causes the plane to land immediately. That a woman in even the earliest stages of labor would even get onto a public airline indicates a callous lack of regard for her fellow passengers.
