| February 07, 2006 | | China - Sweden - US Freight Opportunities to be Discussed | The Air Freight Asia 2006 event will be held in Pudong Shanghai next week. I will be with a delegation of Swedish aviation authorities. Visit us at booth #73. The authorities are in charge of all the airports
in Sweden. The purpose of the visit is to introduce the Swedish
airports and the opportunities for using the Arlanda (ARN) airport as
a stop over for the China to
US route.
See below for a breakdown of the cost savings involved in using Sweden's Arlanda (ARN) as opposed to Copenhagen (CPH).
