SEP 12, 2005 (newstodate): With effect from September 1, British Airways World Cargo has appointed Airline Services GSA Limited, based in Vantaa, Helsinki, as its general sales agent for Finland.
-Finland is a key region in the Nordic countries and one that provides significant opportunity for development and expansion. The appointment of Airline Services GSA is a major boost for our operations in the Nordics, says John Cheetham, BAWC area commercial manager for North West Europe.
British Airways World Cargo has been without a dedicated representative in Finland since February 15, 2005, when an agreement with Finnair Cargo was terminated.
The Finnish market contributes only "between five and 10 percent" of the company's total Nordic sales, and by signing the new GSA contract BAWC hopes for a larger share of the market.
BAWC serves Finland with capacity on 14 weekly BA passenger flights into London Heathrow, in addition to a trucking service which feeds into the main BA network and BA World Cargo freighter schedule in Germany.
