AirBridgeCargo (ABC) transported humanitarian cargo to India from Liege Airport. Faced with the Covid-19 epidemic, Indian hospitals are lacking oxygen for their patients. The airport and its partners play a major role in humanitarian flights.

"We have the experience to manage urgent requests from NGOs and United Nations Agencies in terms of logistics flows and thus allow them a quick and efficient intervention", explains Muriel Baugnée, coordinator of the Health and Humanitarian Center at Liege Airport.

AirBridgeCargo's Boeing 747-400ERF brought oxygen purification systems to Indian hospitals. The urgent delivery was organized in close cooperation with ABC’s long-standing partner, Chapman Freeborn.

Yulia Celetaria, Global Healthcare Director of Volga-Dnepr Group highlighted: 'With 30+ years of experience in humanitarian sector, Volga-Dnepr is proud to collaborate with like-minded partners, like Liege Airport, who share the same values, especially when it comes to healthcare. During the last month our freighters operated a number of dedicated charter flights to India with vital medical supplies to help the nation suffering another COVID-19 resurgence and oxygen crisis. On top of that, we have also delivered vaccines which will enable India to continue its vaccination programme and reach herd immunity'.
