just curious.

What`s the source of your info and do you think it is reliable?

Islandsflug are setting up a Cargo op in AUH with A310/A300-600 (apparently) through PARC. My impression is that there may be an EK Skycargo angle. Not sure how that would impact their biz with ATLAS if that rumour is true?

I`d love to get one last flying job before I die from frustration.

EY Cargo

EY will be starting Cargo operations and has approached Islandflug for 3 aircrafts. 1 A300-600 is suppose to jin the fleet nex month and 1 A310 and 1 A300 the following months. Most probably might start with Amsterdam.
Bangalore will be a good hub in India.
Is Abu Dhabi a good hub for cargo operations???
Which other destinations should it operate.

I thought Islandsflug were merging with Air Atlanta. At least thats what I heard.

[Atlanta-Driver]

Air Atlanta and Islandsflug are combining operations starting 1st of January 2005, that is in a few days time.
