Vistara offering free air travel to doctors and nurses on official duty

Vistara has been running a generous campaign for doctors and nurses since April 25, which I thought must be talked about so that more people could use the programme if applicable for them.

Vistara has been operating under their National Relief Programme and has extended support to the Government of India and state governments/union territories in the wake of the second wave of COVID-19 in India. Under the programme, the airline offers complimentary cargo space on its domestic flights for transportation of the medical supplies, PPE kits, vaccines etc., by government organisations.

The airline has also offered to provide free of cost air travel, across its domestic network, to doctors and nurses, representing government organisations/hospitals, travelling to carry out their official duties. The program was launched on 25 April with 15-day validity initially.

Eligible organisations or personnel need to send their requests to nationalrelief@airvistara.com, fill in the relevant request forms (which will be shared as a response to the mails) and submit them along with supporting documents. After evaluation of the papers, Vistara will process qualified requests for support.

If you are a doctor, you could still send your requests to them.

What do you think of this noble gesture from Vistara?
