IAG Cargo, the cargo division of International Airlines Group (IAG), has donated the capacity to transport 34 t of emergency aid to Islamabad, Pakistan, following the devastating humanitarian crisis caused by floods across the country.

 

A large consignment of over 8 t of vital aid was transported on Sunday, 25 September 2022, this included non-perishable food, tents, clothing and much needed medical supplies. This flight was operated by a team of specially selected cabin crew who all have a personal connection to Pakistan.

 

All aid transported has been donated by key charity partners, including Football for Peace and Khalsa Aid. A further 21 t of aid will be flown to Pakistan over the next few weeks.

 

In addition to sending aid supplies, British Airways – part of the IAG Group, has also redirected 100% of its on-board collections to the DEC’s appeal, raising over £176,800. (cj)
