United Nations Humanitarian Air Services (UNHAS)

Unverified non-profit organisation

The United Nations Humanitarian Air Services (UNHAS) is a UN common service managed by the World Food Programme (WFP). UNHAS provides safe and reliable passenger and cargo air services to the entire humanitarian community especially to remote locations where, due to lack of infrastructures and insecurity, there are no commercial alternatives. UNHAS air facilities are deployed in support of aid delivery and development programmes of the humanitarian community during and after emergencies. UNHAS equally provides one-time dedicated flights/strategic airlifts and performs medical and security evacuations at the request of the humanitarian community.
