Get vaccinated on the plane? In the state of Salzburg, this is made possible by a cooperation between the airport, the state of Salzburg, the Red Cross and Eurowings.
On November 9th, doctors and representatives of the Red Cross endeavor to vaccinate as many people as possible where passengers normally start their vacation relaxed or fly to their business meeting in the shortest possible time. Just like on vacation - just check in at the check-in for the "stitch in flight", the data is recorded by employees of the Red Cross), through a special counter at the security controls to the gate and then it is only a few steps into the plane from Eurowings.
Both before and after the sting there are enough seats for waiting "vaccination passengers" - including a look into the cockpit, because the flight captain Bernhard Dallner and his crew also make every effort to ensure the well-being of the guests on board. After the “safe landing in the vaccination”, everyone who has just been vaccinated can return to the check-in hall using the same route.
"We are happy to support any initiative by the state of Salzburg when it comes to immunizing our population against Corona. Especially with the increasing air traffic in Europe, the possibility of borderless travel is an important signal for all people, business groups and industry. In the future, the COVID-19 vaccination will also be an indispensable part of this unlimited freedom of travel," says Bettina Ganghofer, Managing Director of Salzburg Airport.
