She said: "The aviation industry's humanitarian impact is often overlooked, but through cargo operations and Airlink, skilled responders are sent to disaster zones. Airlink seeks more support to deliver disaster cargo to communities in need."

Airlink is  supported by 50+ aviation partners. Airlink partners with non-profits and aviation organizations to deliver disaster supplies and aid worldwide. It offers passenger and cargo transportation services at local, national, and international levels.
