Nov 30, 2021 (newstodate): In summer 2021, WFS started the design of a new Terminal 3 at Copenhagen Airport, to be integrated with the existing Terminal 2 – a warehouse of approx. 3,700 m2, which increases the number of truck gates by 20 percent, providing a clear improvement of flow, and a centralized handling facility for both import and export traffic.   
   Earlier, WFS set the deadline for finalization of the project to Q3, 2022, now pushed back to Q4, 2022.
   Seeing volumes growing again after the Coronavirus attack and reaching some 100,000 tonnes in 2021, WFS has also leased an additional facility for a 12-months period to meet its short-term capacity needs.
   This year alone, WFS has renewed its cargo handling contract with Qatar Airways, Air China and Sichuan Airlines and counts leading carriers like Emirates among its key customers since November 5, 2019. In total, WFS is now handling the cargo of 31 online carriers at Copenhagen Airport, as well as providing cargo handling services for a further 127 offline carriers.
   WFS made its debut at Copenhagen Airport with the opening of its first 4,600 m2 cargo terminal in 2006, adding a 3,000 m2 Terminal 2 facility at the beginning of 2010, as well as setting up a new 1,500 m2 facility dedicated to handling of pharma shipments.
