First United Airlines Flight Offering Free Transatlantic COVID-19 Testing Takes Off

First of its kind, testing program guarantees customers over two years old and crew test negative before departure

Three-times-weekly flights from New York/Newark to London Heathrow begin four-week run

PR Newswire

NEWARK, N.J., Nov. 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Today, United customers traveling on flight 14 from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to London Heathrow (LHR) were the first to experience the airline’s free transatlantic COVID-19 testing pilot program. The airline provided rapid tests to every passenger over 2 years old and all crew members on board, free of charge, guaranteeing everyone* on the flight tested negative prior to departure.

“These flights are a good proof-of-concept for governments around the world that are considering making testing part of the travel experience,” said Toby Enqvist, chief customer officer for United. “Expanding our testing efforts with pilot programs like this one not only helps guarantee passengers* onboard test negative for COVID-19, it also adds another element to our layered approach to safety and demonstrates a way to work within quarantines to key international destinations.”

The rapid Abbott ID Now COVID-19 test – administered by Premise Health – was offered onsite at a testing facility, located at the Newark United Club near Gate C93. The test will continue to be used with passengers traveling on United Flight 14, departing at 7:15 p.m., Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays for the next four weeks. Customers booking these flights will have the option to confirm their willingness to participate in the trial or be accommodated on another flight. Customers who opt-in will receive information prior to travel in order to schedule a testing appointment at least three hours before their flight departs. All customers are still subject to current U.K. entry requirements, including the 14-day quarantine rule. For more information on the testing program, please visit united.com/covid-testing.

United has invited governments on both sides of the Atlantic to observe this pilot program and to assess its effectiveness as an alternative to mandatory quarantines and travel restrictions. United has seen a positive impact on travel demand and significant increases in customer load factors as well as revenue when testing options are available.

Before the pandemic, United operated six daily flights between New York/Newark and London Heathrow on a 767-300ER (76L), offering not only the most frequency among U.S. carriers, but also the most business class and Premium Economy seats. Click here for b-roll and still images of United Airlines’ COVID-19 testing programs.

Since the start of the pandemic, United has been a leader among U.S. airlines in enacting new policies and innovations designed to keep employees and passengers safe when traveling. It was the first U.S. airline to mandate masks for flight attendants, quickly followed by all customers and employees. United was also among the first U.S. carriers to announce it would not permit customers who refused to comply with the airline’s mandatory mask policy to fly with them, while the face mask policy is in place. United was also the first U.S. airline to roll out touchless check-in for customers with bags and the first to require passengers to take an online health self-assessment before traveling. Additionally, last month, the airline announced it will apply Zoono Microbe Shield, an EPA registered antimicrobial coating that forms a long-lasting bond with surfaces and inhibits the growth of microbes, to its entire mainline and express fleet before the end of the year.

For more details on all the ways United is helping to keep customers safe during their journey, please visit united.com/cleanplus.

Company Sales are Up 38.9% from Q2-2020 and Returns To Profitability

Miami, Florida, Nov. 16, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Blue Star Foods Corp. (OTC:BSFC), (“Blue Star”), a sustainable seafood company, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended September 30th, 2020 (“Q3-2020”).

Results of Operations – (Three months ended September 30, 2020 vs. June 30, 2020)

  Increase In Sales. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased 38.9% to $3,980,151 as compared to $2,865,103 for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
     
    This is a result of an increase in poundage sold due to more focused sales into the retail food sector, and in particular, the market response to our patented Blue Star Brand “Eco-Fresh” pouches.
     
    The Eco-Fresh pouches have a QR code traceability feature affixed to them which means the supply chain can be verified by retail customers that appreciate the ethical packaging that consumes less energy, emits lower amounts of greenhouse gases and requires less waste management than cans or cups, which are the current industry packaging standards for pasteurized crab meat.
     
  Return To Profitability: The Adjusted Cash Net Income(*) for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $63,298 vs. an Adjusted Cash Net Income Loss of $782,197 in the three months ended June 30, 2020.
 
 

 
    The return to profitability was directly due to an increase in sales to the retail food sector and improved operational efficiencies.

Other Strategic and Operating Highlights

  Significant Decrease in Year-Over-Year Outstanding Short-Term Debt. Total Current Liabilities as of September 30th, 2020 were $9,056,835 as compared to $12,722,490 as of September 30th, 2019, a reduction of $3,665,655.
     
    Throughout the last 12 months, the Company has been focused on improving its day sales inventory ratio and its cash conversion cycle which has allowed the Company to effectively lower its leverage.

The Company’s Chairman and CEO, John Keeler stated, “Almost all of our financial performance metrics improved in Q3-2020, including sales growth, a return to profitability on a cash basis, and the strengthening of our balance sheet. We believe our performance contrasts with other participants in the pasteurized crab meat space, who don’t have the retail market differentiator like we do. I am proud of my team’s resilience in the face of what are still challenging COVID-19 market conditions. As always, our focus is to continue to make improvements in the business, keep our team members safe, and to be a reliable partner to our growing retail base.” He further added, “While we continue to make improvements to our platform business, we have not stopped actively look for potential acquisition candidates that make sense in terms of both having operational synergies, and that have our core values such as improving the health of the oceans. We are determined to make some progress in this direction over the next several months.”
