May 06, 2020 (newstodate): Emirates SkyCargo is to go steady with all-cargo flights between Dubai and Copenhagen.
   After a few ad hoc all-cargo operations with passenger aircraft, Emirates SkyCargo has now decided to schedule two weekly Boeing 777-300ER passenger belly freighters on Fridays and Sundays between Copenhagen and Dubai, each carrying more than 40 tonnes or 150 cb.m. of cargo.
   The new services will primarily be carrying medical supplies including PPE into Copenhagen, while export loads will comprise shipments such as temperature sensitive medicines and pharmaceuticals, relief cargo, ship spares, food ingredients, enzymes, thermostats and industrial machinery.
   Earlier, Emirates SkyCargo was a major freighter operator at Copenhagen Airport that became its Scandinavian freighter hub from July 1, 2014, operating up to 11 weekly scheduled freighter operations in addition to an increase in Emirates SkyCargo en-route calls on flights between Dubai and the USA, in periods bringing its total of monthly movements at Copenhagen up to 55.
   In Scandinavia, Scanpartners serves as GSSA for Emirates SkyCargo, while WFS serves as its cargo handling provider since November 5, 2019.
