In the midst of the Corona epidemic, Air India has received worldwide acclaim through a number of relief operations. Air India airlines undertook the return of stranded people from many countries. The name of Pakistan has now been included in the countries praising Air India. Pakistan's air traffic control not only welcomed Air India's flight into its airspace but also praised the airlines. On April 2, Air India flight was going from Mumbai to Frankfurt and many European citizens were on this flight. The flight departed from Mumbai at 2:30 pm and entered the airspace of Pakistan at 5:00 pm. An Air India official said, 'We tried to contact the air traffic control but we did not get any response. So then we changed the frequency. After this, the words of Pakistan Air Traffic Control surprised the pilot. '
"The Air Traffic Controller said - 'Assalam Walekum this is the Karachi air control room and it welcomes Air India flights'," the Air India officer told NDTV. After this, the control room in Karachi asked if you confirm that this flight is going for relief work, which is going to Frankfurt. In response, the pilot agreed. According to Air India, Air Traffic Control told the pilot that they are proud of them that they are doing relief work and working in difficult times. The Control Room said, 'We are proud of you that you are in such a situation."
The Air India official told NDTV that this could save 15 minutes of flight. Pakistan's traffic control assisted Indian aircraft not only once but twice. After this, when the Air India aircraft entered Iran's airspace and was unable to make contact, the Pakistan Air Traffic Controller again helped.
Pakistani Air Traffic Control sent a message to Iran's Traffic Control, after which Iran's Air Traffic Control also provided a short route. Air India's flight also received praise from Turkish and German air traffic control.
