Mar 12, 2007 (newstodate): The new Nordic cargo GSA, Scandinavian AirBridge AB, is upbeat about prospects for growth and development.
-We started work from January 1, 2007, with Icelandair Cargo as our launch customer, and we see a huge potential in this carrier's development in the Swedish and Finnish market where we are designated cargo GSA, says Paer Wahlstedt, Scandinavian AirBridge AB managing director and founder.
-From May 17 Icelandair adds three summer flights to its currently seven weekly flights from Stockholm Arlanda, and starts up a new operation at Gothenburg with initially two weekly flights to Keflavik Airport.
-These flights with Boeing 757 aircraft lift 2.5 tonnes of air cargo that is seamlessly transferred at Keflavik for the carrier's US-bound routes.
-Icelandair Cargo is also operating, from May 17, twice-weekly from Helsinki, Finland, to Keflavik, and this service will be an important option for Finland's exporters to the US market that is today without direct access to the North American markets, says Mr Wahlstedt.
In the Finnish market Scandinavian AirBridge cooperates with Nordic GSA as the company does not currently have its own office in Helsinki.
