SIA Cargo to axe DUB route?

[akerosid]

It's been rumoured in DUB that SIA Cargo - currently the only airline offering direct cargo (or indeed any) service to Asia - is to give up the route.

Firstly, any confirmation on this?
Secondly, any reasons given?

Are you referring to Dubai?
Not familiar with 'DUB'. If it's Dubai, code should be DXB.

[BANANASBANANAS]

Haven't heard the rumour myself (DUB or DXB) but then, I only work here!:ok:

[SE7EN]

Not trying to be difficult but this is cut and pasted directly from IATA.

IATA-Code: DXB
ICAO-Code: OMDB
FAA-Code:
Location: Dubai
Airport: Dubai
Country: United Arab Emirates

'DUB' is often used incorrectly by cabin crew.
As far as I know an airport can not have 2 IATA codes. :)

Seven - really, you have gotta get a life. akerosid asks for professional knowledge on a route structure and you sidetracked with bloody IATA codes! Granted aker could have meant Dublin - but unlikely in the context.
Those long night flight with you must just fly by.......

(pls don't bother correting my mis-spelling of your title - its really not that important!)

[NZ X man]

SEVEN-Yea I agree, do you consult the manual before you mount your lawnmower too.:}

I believe DUB is Dublin (Ireland)

[BANANASBANANAS]

You believe correctly. :ok:

[akerosid]

Yes, I meant Dublin - EIDW, DUB, Dear old Dirty ..., Baile Atha Cliath ...

Flew into DUB on Thursday from SHJ.Just before startup,the ground handling staff informed us that services were being stopped.Staff in Copenhagen also mentioned it to us.
