Aug 22, 2006 (newstodate): The Volga-Dnepr Group's AirBridge Cargo has gained solid ground in the US market.
The carrier has signed signed an interline agreement with Continental Airlines and appointed GSA partners in key cities across the United States to begin growing its presence in America ahead of the anticipated launch of its own Boeing 747 freighter services in 2007.
The US airline has stated its plans to enter the Russian market while AirBridge expects the Houston-based airline to provide an important link into its network, notably for the movement of oil and gas equipment from Texas to Sakhalin Island off the coast of Russia.
