    • There were a noticeable number of flights operated to Jeddah in the past few days. Sometimes two flights within a few hours. Any idea why? Haven't seen Jeddah on the schedule for repatriation flights.

        UL was carrying a consignment of face-masks and PPE form Guangzhou to Johannesburg via Colombo
