Emirates SkyCargo air freights salmon from Oslo to Dubai

EMIRATES SkyCargo has expanded its presence in Scandinavia with the launch of a weekly Boeing 777 freighter from Oslo in Norway to its Dubai hub in the UAE.

The new freighter service, departing Oslo every Tuesday, will help increase exports of seafood, in particular salmon, from Norway, the carrier said, according to Air Cargo News.



In the past six years, the exports of seafood from Norway has double due to the increased demand from global customers for Norwegian salmon, trout, cod and crab.



The 100 tonnes cargo capacity of the freighter offered is in addition to the 175 tonnes of belly hold capacity offered on the five times a week Boeing 777-300ER passenger flights from Oslo.



Emirates SkyCargo is an important facilitator of trade between Scandinavia and the rest of the world offering nearly 600 tonnes of weekly cargo capacity through passenger flights to Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm and freighter services to Copenhagen and Oslo.



The Emirates SkyCentral freighter hub at Dubai World Central (DWC) is well equipped to handle seafood and has over 15,000 square metres of temperature controlled storage space. It also has 12 dedicated reefer trucks operating 24/7 between Dubai World Central and Dubai International Airport (DXB).
