Mission of Mercy

From EverybodyWiki Bios & Wiki


The 'Mission of Mercy' [1] is rescue flight mission operated by SriLankan Airlines on 30th January, 2020. The mission was carried out on the instruction of Excellency Gotabaya Rajapaksa, President of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka. The mission is a evacuation operation to bring back 33 Sri Lankan citizens who are stranded in the lock down of Wuhan Province, China due to COVID-19 pandemic. The Mission was operated by Flight UL 1422/1423 with 16-member crew of SriLankan Airlines which lasted more than twenty hours of extremely long turnaround flight from Colombo to Wuhan and back. The Country, The President, The People and The company SriLankan Airlines expresses gratitude to its courageous crew members and staff who volunteered to fly into Wuhan. [2]

Another noble act from crew is they refused all the incentives paid for that said flight duty. The entire crew of SriLankan flight UL 1422/23 that volunteered to operate the Wuhan flight have decided to decline all the flight allowances paid for the said duty period respectfully. Also the crew requested the company authorities to use those funding to buy masks, gloves, and other personal protective items for the SriLankan Airlines staff engaged in ground handling in Bandaranyake International Airport [3].
