May 22, 2014 (newstodate): SAS Cargo has now settled the dates for workshops to boost the implementation of e-AWB in the market.
With SAS Cargo spearheading the process, freight forwarders and other stakeholders in the airfreight business will meet for participation in workshops scheduled for June 11 and 18, 2014, at SAS Cargo's premises.
In Sweden, and hosted by Lufthansa Cargo, a workshop took place on May 20, 2014, with a second workshop set for June 3, 2014, both in Stockholm.
Lufthansa Cargo is also to set up a similar workshop on June 10, 2014, for airfreight forwarders in the Gothenburg region, with details to be announced later.
Similarly, Norwegian forwarders are to meet in Oslo at a workshop arranged by KLM Cargo on June 10, 2014.
As announced at the Nordic Air Cargo Symposium in Stockholm in April, nine IATA carriers have agreed to taking the lead in the process, including Lufthansa Cargo, KLM/Air France, Finnair, SAS, Cathay Pacific, Qatar Airlines and Emirates.
The process will lift off with ambitions to raise the percentage of e-AWBs to 22 percent by the end of 2014, to 45 percent by the end of 2015, and to 80 percent one year later.
