Vaccine trial flights from Miami to South America


The American Airlines Cargo team is preparing for its critical role in transporting the coronavirus vaccine once approved. In mid-November, American’s cargo operation began conducting trial flights, in conjunction with pharmaceutical and cargo partners, from Miami to South America on its B777-200.

 

The trial flights stimulate the conditions required for the Covid-19 vaccine to stress test the thermal packaging and operational handling process that will ultimately ensure it remains stable as it moves across the globe.

 

American Airlines Cargo president Jessica Tyler: "Despite the significant challenges the airline industry is facing, we’re working night and day to put our greatest strengths to use during this time of need — our network, our aircraft and our incredible team." (ah)
