Jan 29, 2018 (newstodate): Norway is keen to develop its freighter services and has now split its passenger and cargo flights incentives program to focus more explicitly on cargo services.
Updated from February 1, 2018, the new freighter start-up incentives program specifies a start-up discount program where airlines are lured to set up new direct freighter routes from an Avinor airport by offering discounted takeoff charges.
A new direct route refers to a year-round route with a minimum of one weekly rotation between two destinations where is not already another year-round direct route with a minimum of one weekly departure.
A new destinations refers to a destination where no other airline operates freighter routes today or have done so for the last 12 months on a weekly basis.
Meeting these requirements, new cargo routes may benefit from 100 percent waiver of takeoff charges for the first year, 30 percent in the second year and 20 percent in the third year of operation.
The current Avinor incentives scheme does not distinguish between passenger and cargo flights.
