flights to USA resuming...from SIN at least
just posted this on rumors and news:
link to rumors and news
from my profile you see where i work and what i do...
we have just been notiied that SQ SIN will resume freighter ops to the USA, starting saturday morning with their SIN-LAX flight.
goods must be with them 24 hours upfront as cooling period.
the presently used 'known shipper declaration' for non-USA bound freight, which waives the 24 hours cooling period, will apparently not be applicable on flights to the USA, known shipper or not...)
pax flights will not come much later (we trust), but there will be an indefinite embargo for freight on pax flights.

Hailstone: I've heard that flights would resume yesterday 12Sep 1700Z. Today it was (apparently) Candian airspace closed. Cut it short, it's Thu 2240LT central Europe (2040Z), Wednesday's freighter aren't going anywhere.
Lets face it: -F operations (especially non-US) are very low down on the pecking order.
I'd guess:-
1)US Govt/military/relief flights
2)Depositioning diverted aircraft
3)US domestic
4)Limited international pax (mainly delayed fights)
5)International pax
6)Fedex/UPS
7)Delayed intl cargo
9)Anything else I've forgotten
10) Anything else my neighbour has forgotten
11)Perhaps scheduled freight.
Early next week is my personal opinion.
