New Delhi: The ground floor of Air India’s Centaur Hotel was sealed for two days on Wednesday for sanitisation after a crew member tested at the temporary facility there was found positive for COVID-19, senior airline officials said. Air India had sealed its headquarters in Delhi on Tuesday for two days to conduct a thorough sanitisation of the building after an employee who worked there tested positive.

“All hotels are currently closed and Centaur was also not functioning as a hotel. A part of the premises, which was used for conducting tests, has been demarcated for sanitisation adhering to safety protocols, and the crew test is shifted to a different medical office for the time being,” an Air India spokesperson said.

The govt-run AI is the only airline involved in the Vande Bharat Mission. The carrier is scheduled to operate 64 flights between May 7-14 to repatriate 15,000 stranded Indians from 12 countries on a payment basis. —Agencies
