Petrolina participates in the crucial fight of Cyprus against corona virus, as well as in the Government efforts to repatriate Cypriots, by supplying free aviation fuel for the flights.

According to the official government announcement, at this point, repatriation relates to people who belong in vulnerable groups, Cypriots who were stranded abroad after a visit, either for professional or medical reasons and for students in universities abroad. 

As a beginning, Petrolina’s support included two scheduled flights:

• The Cyprus Airways flight, on 9th April, from Larnaca-London-Larnaca, carrying in total 96 Cyprus citizens, from United Kingdom, United States, New Zealand and France. The flight was offered by Cyprus Airways and Petrolina supplied the fuels for free.

• A second flight, from Larnaca-Hannover-Thessaloniki-Larnaca, transferring 107 citizens (36 from Germany, 7 from Saudi Arabia, 3 Switzerland, 2 from Holland, 2 from Denmark, 2 from Polland, 1 from France and 54 from Greece), which arrived on 10th April.  The flight was offered by the Bank of Cyprus and Petrolina supplied the fuels for free.

Petrolina, as a 100% Cypriot company, is devoted to its principles and will continue to operate with respect towards the community and economy of Cyprus. It will offer support, as always, to the country and to those who in need.   

Petrolina urges everyone to follow the instructions and protocols set by the Ministry of Health, in order for Cyprus to fight successfully the contagion of COVID-19.
