US and Azerbaijan sign open skies agreement
THE US and Azerbaijan have signed an open skies agreement to pave the way for the liberalisation of the air transport market between the two nations.
President of the Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL), Jahangir Asgarov, and the US ambassador in Baku, Robert Cekuta, signed the accord in the capital city of Baku.
Baku-based freighter operator Silk Way West that operates a fleet of two Boeing 747-400 freighters and three B747-8Fs, commented on its website: "The bilateral agreement will simplify the process of organising flights between the US and Azerbaijan, and contribute to the increase in the number of commercial flights."
Silk Way West Airlines has been operating the Baku-New York regular flights once a week since May 2015, reported London's Air Cargo News.
This March Malpensa airport-based Silk Way Italia, part of the Silk Way Group, applied for a foreign air carrier permit to offer scheduled and on-demand cargo charters operated by B747-400Fs out of Italy and intermediate points to the US and beyond.
