Cool, Safe & Quickly: 6 tons of refrigerated medicines by express charter flight from Portugal to Libya

Together for better medical care: Almost 6 tons of urgently needed medicines were sent on their way from Porto to Tripoli by charter flight in mid-November 2020. These were mainly sedatives and anesthetics for use in intensive care, pain therapy and emergency medicine, which are used in particular to contain and manage the Corona pandemic in Libya.
The drugs were transported from the manufacturer Laboratórios Basi in Mortágua, Portugal, to Porto Airport in the cooled packaging required. The goods were flown to Mitiga International Airport in Libya on a Boeing 737-300F specially chartered for this purpose from Express Air Cargo in Tunisia and immediately forwarded by refrigerated transport to the warehouse of the Libyan Ministry of Health. From there, distribution is made to hospitals and clinics throughout the country. By the way, the transport from the manufacturer‘s warehouse to the recipient‘s warehouse took less than 9 hours!
We would like to thank all employees of the companies and authorities involved for this special effort!
