To be based at Helsinki, Finland, the new carrier will operate scheduled cargo flights to destinations in Asia and, probably, to the USA.

Besides the brief information contained in the letter to the stock exchange, no further details have been made available despite calls on both Neff Capital Management and Finnair Cargo.
Finnair Cargo currently operates a freighter network comprising flights from Finland to Hong Kong, Seoul and New York.
Neff Capital Management, founded in January 2010 by Brian Neff, the former President of Southern Air Inc, is a Miami-based private equity firm focusing on control investments within the aviation industry.
