Mar 30, 2007 (newstodate): IATA carriers dominated the Scandinavian export airfreight markets in 2006.
Official IATA CASS figures for Denmark, Norway and Sweden compared to other authoritative sources on total export airfreight volumes in the three markets cast some light on the proportional role played in the markets by IATA carriers.
On this basis, Norway tops the list with 88 percent of all exports on IATA carriers.
Second comes Denmark with an IATA rate at 79 percent, followed by Sweden, where IATA carriers lift 71 percent of the export airfreight.
Norway earlier lifted much of its fresh salmon exports to the Far East on non-IATA cargo charters, but the market is now served by IATA freighters on scheduled basis.
The relatively low IATA rate in the Swedish market reflects a/o the country's large export of telecom equipment and other special cargo shipments requiring frequent charters of Russian and CIS freighters able to lift outsize and heavyweight shipments.
