Air Malta transported more than 17 vaccines to Libya on Tuesday, August 2021, 40.000. Captain Frank Scerri, a TRI / TRE on the A320 Family, together with Chief Pilot Training for the Maltese national airline, Captain Eric Cordina, were in the cockpit.

The flight landed at Mitiga Airport in Tripoli, which is currently serving as an important gateway to the Libyan capital given the damage that Tripoli International Airport suffered during the civil unrest.

The gesture also received praise from WHO Regional Director Hans Kluge, who thanked the Maltese government for its solidarity with Libya. In a statement, Air Malta said it was delighted to be part of this global effort by shipping vaccines and helping neighboring countries.
