Amid India’s second Covid crisis, CHI Aviation Handling, in co-operation with the national carrier Air India and global forwarder DSV Air & Sea, handled a total of five special flights with medical supplies with destinations Srinagar and Delhi at Frankfurt International airport in May and early June.
Among other urgent life-saving goods, 31.5 tonnes of oxygen tanks, 27 tonnes of oxygen generators and 68 tonnes of granules for the production of oxygen were loaded. Boeing C17 aircraft were used for all five charter flights.
India’s flag carrier airline looks back on 18 very special and demanding months. She has responded in an agile and flexible manner to the demands of the Indian health sector and pharmaceutical industry and has transported many tonnes of medical supplies, both in import and export format.
