World, Finnair enter cargo flights agreement
World Airways, a subsidiary of Global Aviation Holdings, has entered into an agreement with Finnair Cargo to provide MD-11 all-cargo flights serving Helsinki, Shanghai and New York, starting June 15.
The new service is to operate twice a week using World’s traffic rights.
“We have already achieved recognition among our cargo customers in China and Europe for Finnair’s daily passenger flight service to Shanghai and are now welcoming our new freighter service,” said Pertti Mero, Finnair Cargo's vice president of global sales. “Viewed from Shanghai, the new freighter services offer connections to Northern Europe and also provide fast services from Northern Europe to Shanghai. In addition to Shanghai flights, more capacity to New York is welcomed.”
