An air traffic controller gave a warm welcome to two Indian planes carrying relief supplies to Frankfurt while granting them passageway.

According to The Hindustan Times, one of the senior captains aboard the special flights to Germany said: "It was a very proud moment for me as well as the entire Air India crew when we heard from Pakistan ATC praising our special flight operations to Europe."

“As we entered Pakistan’s Flight Information Region, the ATC greeted us with Assalamualaikum! This is Karachi’s control welcoming Air India for relief flights to Frankfurt,” the senior captain quoted the official as saying.
