Jul 03, 2019 (newstodate): Cargo Flight Service Finland Ltd is a young company - but thriving on experience gained from more than 26 years of service with Finnair Cargo..
CFS Finland was set up in June 2016 by Heikki Nikamaa who left Finnair Cargo in May 2016 after last serving as Finnair Cargo Area Director Freighter Sales and Operation, and with the company from May 1990.
-I left Finnair Cargo with rich experience in air cargo and a tight world-wide professional network as the basis for setting up CFS Finland as an air cargo niche business partner providing cargo chartering, air cargo and courier services, and consulting services, says Mr Nikamaa.
-It really has come off to a good start, with 17 full-charter Boeing 737 freighter flights between Helsinki and Moscow driven by e-commerce during the winter schedule 2016/17.
-Next came a contract comprising four weekly domestic SAAB 340 full-freighter flights from September 2017 till end of December 2018 from Lappland to Helsinki, feeding shipments into an integrator network, and from the start of 2019 till end of June CFS Finland has operated on-board courier services four times weekly from Hamburg as well as from Copenhagen to Helsinki.
-Now, I am negotiating two major projects for 2019 - not yet finalized, but boding well for the future, says Mr Nikamaa.
