The Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport Cargo society plans for the supply of potential Covid-19 vaccines
The entire Cargo group at Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, Europe's leading air freight airport, is working together within the ACFA (Air Cargo https://air-miles-guide.com/countries/france/ France Association) to massively prepare for the supply and distribution of potential Covid-19 vaccines once they have been accepted and are ready to be shipped.
ACFA, a specialized group of Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport all-cargo operators (airport platforms, freight forwarders, handlers, express operators and airlines) as well as French national services (delegation of the Prefecture of Paris Airport Police for the Safety and Security of Paris Airports, Directorate-General of Customs and Excise, French Civil Aviation Authority) has already joined forces with b
Since the onset of the health crisis, the Paris-Charles de Gaulle freight and logistics players have been strongly committed to ensuring the continuity of cargo operations and the transport of food and vital goods for the economy of the country: medical equipment and supplies, food items, components and industrial spare parts.
In recent years, several major operators have been awarded CEIV Pharma (Centre of Excellence for Independent Validators) certification in Cargo City, Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, which has become the international standard for the transport of pharmaceutical goods, in particular vaccines.
In order to increase airport efficiency in the management of vaccine flows, ACFA is currently focusing on new areas for development, with two main mottoes: pace and protection.
Speed
: to minimize the transit time of airport vaccinations. Discussions in this context concentrate primarily on customs clearance procedures and the overall reduction of the transit time of vaccines between road trucks and airplanes;
Safety
Operations are carried out by experts in the logistics of pharmaceutical products who have established long-standing and global experience.
Thanks to the GDP of their
(Good Distribution Practices) Certifications issued by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) European Medicines Agency or PHARMA CEIV (Centre of Excellence for Independent Validators) Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport operators guarantee safe care that meets the highest pharmaceutical industry requirements.
Of more than 3,500 sq. Paris-Charles de Gaulle warehouses dedicated to the storage of heat-sensitive goods between +2 ° and +8 ° (Celsius) Paris-Charles de Gaulle provides state-of-the-art facilities to ensure optimum storage, even though such vaccines must be transported by aircraft in precise and autonomous containers or packaging allowing temperatures to be stored for up to 10 days at -70 ° or even -80 ° Celsius.
In addition to these steps, ACFA wishes to endorse the views expressed by IATA (International Air Transport Association) regarding the greater flexibility of air traffic rights, with a view to privileging the most direct routes to countries needing supplies of vaccines or active substances between the production sites of potential vaccines and France or vice versa from France.
On this occasion, Laurent Bernet , chairman of SYCAFF (Trade Union of Freight Airlines in France) and chairman of ACFA , stated: " our airlines and the entire Paris-Charles de Gaulle's air cargo community have shown that they were perfectly able to manage the first period of the crisis, marked by the urgent transport of personal protective equipment. Today, we're even more determined than ever to meet the challenge of this global vaccination campaign. "
On this occasion, Laurent Bernet, Chairman of the SYCAFF (French Trade Union of Freight Airlines) and Chairman of the ACFA (French Trade Union of Freight Airlines) stated: "Our airlines and the entire Paris-Charles de Gaulle air cargo community demonstrated that they were perfectly capable of managing the first period of the crisis, marked by the urgent carriage of personal protective equipment." Today, we are much more motivated than ever to meet this global vaccination campaign's challenge. "
For Joël Glusman, CEO of TLF Overseas: ' the freight forwarders and customs representatives specialised in customs clearance at Paris-Charles de Gaulle are ready to take up this new logistical challenge. As certified professionals with real know-how, both on operational and custom sides, and staffed for controlled management of pharmaceutical products, we will provide our support to the cargo community to meet the demands of our clients and public health requirements."
Philippe Legué, Interregional head of Customs for the Paris Airports, stated: "i
n coordination with all members of the airport community, the priority of the customs at Paris-Charles de Gaulle is to guarantee the safety and the fluidity of vaccine supplies. The customs services at Paris-Charles de Gaulle are organised and mobilised to handle day and night customs clearance, transit and transshipment of goods, and to check the compliance of vaccines that will be imported into the European market. The interconnection of customs information systems with those of other players in the logistics chain is a remarkable tool for planning in advance and screening their route through the airport."
And Édouard Mathieu, Chief of development for Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport within Groupe ADP, concludes: "with its 300 hectares and 700,000 sq.m of cross-dock warehouse space giving direct access to the airside areas, the Cargo City at Paris-Charles de Gaulle is a considerable asset enabling all players in the cargo community and their shipper customers to reduce the time between vaccine deliveries and their dispatch to the distribution network."
