On October 25, the surging news (www.thepaper.cn) reporter learned from China Eastern Airlines that at 14:00 on October 24, China Eastern Airlines received the task of transporting human organ donations, and Mr. Wang, a doctor passenger, was taking the G1656 train to Shanghai Hongqiao Airport with his liver, and then needed to take flight MU5127 to Beijing for surgery. China Eastern Airlines communicated with Dr. Wang in advance to determine the guarantee process. At the same time, the staff coordinated with the airport, railway and other relevant departments, quickly linked, pre-processed, completed all procedures and business applications before Dr. Wang arrived, and arranged for special personnel to guide and assist throughout the process.
China Eastern Airlines introduced that in the past, the organ transfer task of railway to civil aviation had to wait outside the high-speed rail station, considering that the time of the mission guarantee connection was less than half an hour from the flight departure time, with the strong support and assistance of the police of the railway Hongqiao station police station, its staff was able to enter the railway station and wait.
At 20:10 that night, Chen Lei and Yang Zhenxia, employees of China Eastern Airlines Ground Service, waited at the platform of Hongqiao Railway Station in advance, and together with the police who came to assist, confirmed the travel route on the ground to ensure that they could reach the terminal building as quickly as possible. At 20:37, the G1656 train from Jian'ou West Station to Shanghai stopped at Hongqiao Railway Station. As soon as the door of carriage No. 4 opened, Chen Lei and Yang Zhenxia picked up Dr. Wang at the entrance of the carriage and trotted all the way to the exit gate to take the prepared police car. In the car, the ground service staff asked Dr. Wang to fill in the application materials related to organ transportation in advance. After arriving at the terminal, Qian Yiming, a check-in employee, prepared various procedures and coordinated with the security check to ensure that Dr. Wang could pass the security check in the shortest possible time.
At the same time, Chen Ping and the crew of the MU5127 gate of China Eastern Airlines are confirming the guarantee information, and the cabin manager and crew members have a reasonable division of labor to ensure that passengers arrive and leave. During the preparation of the flight, the flight crew has been communicating with the ground service staff, when it is learned that the time of the high-speed train arriving in Shanghai by the doctor passenger and the transfer time of the flight departure time are only 23 minutes, the cabin manager will report the situation to the captain, and the captain confirms: We must wait until Dr. Wang gets on the plane and then close the door, and do not delay the treatment of the patient.
At 20:53, passengers successfully entered the cabin through the green channel. The cabin manager immediately arranged for a flight attendant to assist Dr. Wang in arranging his luggage. Through communication with Dr. Wang, he learned that in order to ensure that the organs can be delivered to Beijing as quickly as possible, he deliberately took the high-speed train from Jian'ou in Nanping, Fujian Province, to Shanghai, and then took a plane from Shanghai to Beijing. The reason for choosing to transfer in Shanghai is that the flights from Shanghai to Beijing are very intensive, and at the same time, they trust the support capabilities of China Eastern Airlines. At 20:55, the door of the flight closed and the plane took off smoothly.
With the joint efforts of all the crew, Flight MU5127 landed at Beijing Capital Airport 35 minutes ahead of schedule. China Eastern Airlines and the railway department jointly created a "miracle" of 16 minutes of air rail transport of human donated organs.
