Air Partner transports over 30 million COVID vaccines in four
months
The Freight team at Air Partner , the global aviation services
group, has transported over 30 million vaccines across the world
since July, as the Group continues to support the fight against
COVID-19. To date, the team has arranged over 40 dedicated charter
flights and counting, flying to 15 countries across four
continents.
Air Partner has supported a number of customers on their
COVID-related flying requirements since the beginning of the
pandemic, with Freight being one of the busiest areas of the
business. In addition to assisting with the vaccination roll-out by
moving large shipments of vaccine raw materials and the vaccines
themselves, the global Freight teams have experienced increased
demand for the movement of goods to keep global supply chains
operating. They have also flown large volumes of PPE from Asia to
the UK, Europe and US.
Mark Briffa, Group CEO of Air Partner plc, said: "The value of
our Freight offering has never been clearer than during the global
pandemic, when we have been able to provide quick, reliable and
effective support to customers needing to transport critical goods,
such as PPE and vaccines, around the world. The Freight team
continues to be exceptionally busy, flying in excess of 30 million
vaccines in the last four months alone, and we are pleased that we
can play this important role at such a pivotal time in the global
recovery."
