FedEx wins US rights to fly cargo to Cuba weekly starting next year

WASHINGTON has granted FedEx rights to five weekly frequencies for a daily, Monday-to-Friday, air cargo flights between Miami and Matanzas, reports London's Loadstar.

The two-year allocation, granted by the US Department of Transportation (DoT), was supported by United Airlines and uncontested by other carriers.



FedEx plans to start the service on January 15. If it fails to operate the service for a period of 90 days, or fails to launch within 90 days of January 15, the allocation will expire.



Earlier this month, the DoT awarded rights to eight airlines to fly between 10 airports in the US and Havana: AA, Delta, JetBlue, Alaska, Southwest, United, Frontier and Spirit.
