Sep 30, 2019 (newstodate): Azerbaijan's Silk Way West Airlines is indeed to offer a new scheduled freighter service to Norway's seafood exporters.
The airline performed its first flight into Oslo Airport on September 27, 2019, flying in from Amsterdam and continuing to Baku for onward transfer of the seafood shipments to Tianjin, in China, as a charter operation.
After this test flight, Silk Way West Airlines will introduce a scheduled weekly Boeing 747-400F service at Oslo Airport on Fridays, with transfer to onward flights on the carrier's network of seafood shipments after temporary storage at Silk Way West Airlines' cooling facilities at Baku Airport.
The scheduled service will be launched from October 11, 2019, as confirmed by Riad Fataliyev, Silk Way West Airlines commercial director Europe, in a phone talk with newstodate this morning.
This ends some confusion in the market where neither the airline's office in Amsterdam, nor its GSA in Norway were able to confirm the early announcement by Avinor prior to the one-off flight in September.
