Nov 18, 2015 (newstodate): Sweden's Jonkoping Airport is not to see 2015 as a record year in cargo.
Operating cargo at the airport are TNT on routes between Brussels, Billund, Oslo and Helsinki, and since April 10, 2012, TNT has been cooperating with Farnair operating an ATR 42-300 freighter on behalf of time:matters, carrying shipments from Baden Airpark, the airport serving Karlsruhe in Germany, to Jonkoping Airport and continuing to Billund Airport, in Denmark.
-As for volumes in 2015, we are seeing a decline as TNT has withdrawn one weekly flight, shifting cargo on its former Friday flight to trucking as the cargo will still reach customers by Monday, says Hermann Larsson, Jonkoping Airport marketing manager..
-The shortfall of this frequency has of course manifested itself in a decline in total volumes, but loads on the remaining four weekly operations, flown by Jet Time, are still high. So while the drop in flight operations is 20 percent, actual volumes are down "only" eight or ten percent, compared to 2014, says Mr Larsson.
