Vaccination has brought about more than just a ray of hope to the world of travel. Perhaps never in history was a vaccine created with the speed and precision as it did for Covid-19. It was the need of the hour and several pharmaceutical giants jumped into the opportunity, hoping to make the globe a safer place whilst making unimaginable revenue. The pharmaceutical companies such Moderna, Pfizer, AstraZeneca and Johnson & Johnson announced their vaccines consecutively one after the other, and the race for countries to source vaccines for their citizens began. Some countries managed to get the vials soon, while others are still falling behind.
Airlines were the first to announce that vaccination would become an integral part of their recovery plan. Here are the various initiatives adopted by global airlines to integrate vaccination into their recovery plan.
ALL NIPPON AIRWAYS
It was announced in June that All Nippon Airways actively began vaccinating its pilots and cabin attendants flying on international flights against Covid-19. The Japan-based airline became one of the first companies to launch workplace vaccinations in Japan. The airline had then announced that it planned to increase its daily vaccination capacity to about 300 to eventually cover all its 46,500 employees. ana.co.jp
