Mar 30, 2016 (newstodate): The opening of Turkish Airlines Cargo's freighter service at Billund airport from April 10, 2016, is a major boost to exporters in the Danish market.
Serving Turkish Airlines Cargo as GSSA provider in the Scandinavia including the Danish market is NordicGSA.
-We received the final confirmation only shortly before Easter, so we have not yet started our active sales and marketing work for this new service. But it is definitely good news that will be well received among customers, says Thomas Frederiksen, NordicGSA Mng Dir & Sales Mgr Denmark.
-Details on the allotment for Denmark on the Airbus A310F freighter that lifts some 45-50 tonnes have still not been communicated, but we will certainly do our utmost to fill up the aircraft with Danish exports while it will probably also attract export cargo from e.g. Norway.
-Opening new freighter destinations, Turkish Airlines Cargo always starts out with one weekly flight, growing with the market to two or more rotations, and it will of course be our ambition to grow volumes to support more flights through Billund Airport as well.
-The Sunday flight schedule is absolutely ideally suited to the needs of Danish exports, transiting shipments through Istanbul Ataturk Airport and reaching destinations on the carrier's global network already by early Monday, says Mr Frederiksen.
In addition to the coming new once-weekly freighter service at Billund Airport, NordicGSA also sells the cargo capacity on Turkish Airline's currently three daily passenger flights from Copenhagen Airport, expanding to four daily flights from May 2016.
