Dec 13, 2005 (newstodate): Icelandic company Trans-Atlantic is seeking a partner in the Danish market to sell capacity on flights from Copenhagen Airport to Vilnius, Lithuania, and Egilstadir in East Iceland.
-Since May and for at least the next two years we are operating staff transportation between Copenhagen and Egilstadir for a customer, but we would like to sell the excess capacity on the routes through a travel agent partner, says Omar Banine, Trans-Atlantic.
-As the aircraft stands idle in Copenhagen Airport in connection with the Iceland-flights, we utilise it to operate between Copenhagen Vilnius and will need a partner for this purpose, too, he says.
Trans-Atlantic operates some 40 flights per year on the route between Copenhagen and Iceland, serving the routes on a weekly basis most of the year, and twice-weekly during the winter period.
The company has chartered a Boeing 737-300 from Lithuanian carrier Aurela that is also a partner to the consortium that won the tender for privatisation of Lithuanian Airlines, now flyLAL.
