Putting all my energy into Seafarers Special Charter Flights coordination
Pl accept my apology if your tweets not replied. Inbox me & take my mobile no.
My work timing 0530 hrs to Midnight, still struggling with pace
Writing reasearch papers also on Seafarers governance issues
@HardeepSPuri@MoCA_GoI@PIB_India @airindiain @AAI_Official Possibilities are:
1) Pay 9 times the fare and make Air India rich
2) No flights to countries which are permitting
3) Book on Air India website which has continous transaction failure after deducting money.
Try as a common man and then tweet like this
Happening Now:
*Takeover Ships
* Crew change Indian Ports
* Stranded Seafarers back Home
What's NOT happening is CREW CHANGE.
Charter Flights is just one step. Major issue is Globally INDIAN Seafarers are STOPPED.
@mansukhmandviya & @DrSJaishankar : Please step in.
SEAFARERS back home
Three (3) Charter Flights by cruise line land in Goa in last 24 hours. About 900 stranded Seafarers return in last one week by #VandeBharatMission or Charter Flights.
Tomorrow one more flight with 80 Seafarers landing in Mumbai.
It's slow but it's happening.
Retweet + Like = Support
Indian should Allow International Flights for Seafarers to join ship and return home.
Jobless in India, stressed up on Ship: That's new Status of Seafarers.
Raise your voice.
कब तक ?
SEAFARERS
Onboard: Can't sign off
Ashore: can't sign on globally but can locally.
At Home : don't know what to do
Giving Exams: Don't ask anything, Lockdown chaloo hai
Companies & Training Institute: Shut Down.
@shipmin_india : Act Please
#FightAgainstCOVID19
Shipping companies: Locked
Seafarer on Ships: Jailed on-board
Seafarers ashore: Lockdown
International Flights for Seafarers: No
फिर पुछते हैं, हाल कैसा है जनाब का, क्या ख्याल है आपका.....
#coronavirus
Time for @shipmin_india to see that Shipping Companies open with 33% staff , Seafarers take Employment & Maritime Training Institutes start working with New procedures.
59 days of Lockdown has killed industry temporarily and if no action taken now , it will be permanent damage.
Timeline:
13 May : @mansukhmandviya announce Charter Flights & #VandeBharatMission 4 Seafarers.
16 May: 2 Companies get permission but Flights can't take off.
Now 11 more companies apply
Doha / Colombo: Emerge Hub Airports.
12 June 2020, crew change expected to be effective.
जलेबी सवाल
Sir what is the procedure to charter flight for crew change?
Answer: We sent letter to DG Shipping.
Will be nice of @shipmin_india declares the Procedures on its website.
#VandeBharatMission till now helped 5% of the Stranded Seafarers return India. Rest all waiting.
Charter flights: Many companies still waiting for PERMISSION from @shipmin_india it's not the cost , it's tue PERMISSION which is dampener.
Hope @mansukhmandviya Ji will intervene.
बहुत परिश्रम करना पड़ रहा है।
About 350 Indian seafarers return using #VandeBharatMission
How many joined: No data with me.
Charter Flight for return of Stranded Seafarers: 1st one will land tomorrow at Goa.
Shipping Companies: struggling for approval for Charter Flights.
For using #VandeBharatMission most of the countries/ Ports need vessel to be in the port when flight lands and again vessel needs to be in the port when flights departs.
It is practically impossible to achieve meeting vessel’s ETA and ETD as per Vande Bharat’s flights.
