Himalaya Airlines fleet now flying with life-saving AEDs onboard

 Adhering to its key guiding principle of ‘Safety’, Himalaya Airlines, a Nepal-China joint venture, has this week introduced Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) onboard all its fleet comprising of three A320s and one A319.

"To ensure flying with Himalaya is safer than ever before, Himalaya has now included AED, a life-saving device on board," a press note issued by the airlines, reads, adding that with this, Himalaya Airlines stands to be the first ever and the only Nepali airlines to carry AEDs onboard. "An AED is a portable device that automatically diagnoses and treats the life-threatening sudden cardiac arrest."

AED helps to quickly shock someone's heart and try to save their life if they collapse, have no pulse, and stop breathing. "Within past few weeks all cabin crew of H9 have received a thorough training for proper usage of AEDs."
