DEC 22, 2003 (newstodate): Before the end of the year, new Icelandic budget airline with routes to the UK and Denmark, Iceland Express will sign a contract with the Icelandic Post Office.
-The contract will cover all Icelandic Post's mail from Iceland to Denmark, totalling some 600 kg per day, says S�var Palsson, Iceland Express Cargo Manager.
For years, the contract has been with Icelandair Cargo, so Iceland Express considers the agreement to be a major break-through in the market after only one year of operation.
-Many prospective customers have been reluctant to sign up with Iceland Express until be have been able to prove a serious, long-term and reliable provider. With this contract I am convinced that we are heading towards a strong development in the air cargo business in 2004, says S�var Palsson.
Iceland Express will take in a second Boeing 737-300 aircraft from April 1, 2004, enabling the airline to double its currently daily flights to London and Copenhagen from the new summer schedule.
