Los Angeles, California (CaymanMama.com) — Ever the humanitarian, actor John Travolta is using his skills as a pilot to take a jetliner full of relief supplies to the capital of the island nation of Haiti.

Travolta, 55, is also traveling along with doctors and ministers from the Church of Scientology.

He is flying his own Boeing 707 jet from his home in Florida, equipped with six tons of ready-to-eat military rations and medical supplies, intended for the survivors of the devastating earthquake that shook under the ground of Haiti on January 12.

Travolta’s wife, Kelly Preston, was also aboard.

“We have the ability to actually help make a difference in the situation in Haiti and I just can’t see not using this plane to help,” Travolta said.

Travolta said this mission is a lot like the ones carried out after Hurricane Katrina wiped out New Orleans.

“We were there right away, with this airplane, because you know we have the ability and the means to do this so I think you have responsibility on some level to do that.”
