Aug 22, 2017 (newstodate): Since November 2015, Avinor has refrained from publishing any statistics on cargo volumes through Oslo Airport. Now the veil has been lifted on January-June 2017 volumes.
According to Avinor, Oslo Airport saw its total volumes, imports and exports combined, up by 32.1 percent, y-o-y, to 86,700 tonnes in H1, 2017.
The steep growth is driven primarily by the unique growth in freighter traffic lifting Norwegian seafood exports to the global marketplace.
Today, Oslo Airport is handling 17 weekly freighters from carriers including Korean Air Cargo, Qatar Cargo, Emirates SkyCargo, AirBridgeCargo, Cargolux, Turkish Cargo, CAL Cargo Airlines, UPS and DHL Aviation.
Sources outside Avinor estimates that about 40,000 tonnes of the export cargo at Oslo Airport is seafood exports that Avinor itself expects to see rising to about 90,000 tonnes in the 2017 full-year statistics, which would be more than 50 percent over volumes in 2016.
It this holds true, Oslo Airport would be handling a total of about 180,000 tonnes of cargo in 2017, exports and imports combined.
