Latest rumors running around at home base that Etihad has bought the ex Swiss Logistics shares from Cargolux for 130 m $. Anyone can confirm this. Thanks:confused:
Hi mate & welcome.
I guess we're all still waiting to see something "on paper" that makes it "official".
There is a similar thread on the Middle East forum, 2nd page, though there is no confirmation there either.
Ho hum.
$130m is a bit cheap for a third of the company though (imho).
