We only did our job, and we are thankful to Air India for giving us this opportunity to serve the nation," said the crew members of the national carrier who are in home quarantine after evacuating 263 Indian nationals from Coronavirus-hit Rome, Italy.

A team of 22 people, including the Air Indian crew, doctors and nurses, on board AI123 (787-Dreamliner) took off for Rome on March 21 evening and landed at Delhi airport on Sunday morning along with the 263 Indians, mostly students. The crew members have been advised to remain in home quarantine for 14 days as a precautionary measure.
