Aug 31, 2022 (newstodate): The coming new WFS cargo terminal 3 at Copenhagen Airport is readying for launch of services early in September 2022, with an official opening date to be announced shortly.
In 2021, WFS started the design and construction of the 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.
The coming new infrastructure will enhance the integration of the import and export handling services, eliminating the current need for customers to be pendling between two points of service, as well as optimizing the utilization of manpower and equipment.
As a short-term solution to bridge the gap till the opening of the new terminal, WFS has been leasing an additional adjacent facility to meet the extraordinarily high demands for handling capacity.
On May 2, 2006, Delta Air Lines became the first airline to contract WFS for cargo handling at Copenhagen Airport as WFS made its debut at Copenhagen Airport with the opening of its first 4,600 m2 cargo terminal, 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.
