Nov 16, 2009 (newstodate): Today is a crucial day for Sweden's Jonkoping Airport.
At stake is the airport's license to operate night operations, which is essential for the airport to attract cargo operations - a vital part of its business plan as ownership changes from state to commune from December 1, 2009, after more than 50 years of operations as part of LFV.
-At Jonkoping air cargo business contributes 75 percent of total turnover, so this segment has the full attention of the management and is destined to play a leading role in the airport's future development, says Herman Larsson, Jonkoping Airport marketing manager.
-The permission to handle flights during the night is, however, crucial to the airport, so much is at stake for us, says Mr Larsson.
The verdict in the case is expected this afternoon.
