Freight volumes up 50% at Kent Airport
17.03.07
Kent International Airport handled 2,408 tonnes of freight during February, a year on year increase of nearly 50%. The jump comes after a 15% drop in January, blamed on a 'seasonal issue'.
During the month Cosmos and Kent County Council announced that the weekly summer charter service to Virginia, USA would not be operating during the summer as planned. This venture, which was initiated and primarily backed by the local Governments at each end, would have been an bonus on business plan expectations, the airport said. At 26 total flights, the volumes would have been modest. The best prospects remain for domestic and European scheduled and charter services, the spokesman added.
