Carriers choose WFS to handle UK cargo

[ October 3, 2022   //   Chris Lewis ]

Worldwide Flight Services’ (WFS) nationwide cargo handling network in the UK has earned new contracts with All Nippon Airways (ANA) and Tunisian carrier, Nouvelair.

ANA has signed a three-year agreement with WFS to provide offline cargo reception points at 11 regional airports: Aberdeen, Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, East Midlands, Edinburgh, Glasgow, London Gatwick, Manchester, and Newcastle. WFS’ UK transport division will also provide road feeder services.

ANA will continue to work with its existing cargo handler at London Heathrow.

At London Gatwick, Nouvelair has awarded WFS a three year contract to handle cargo on its new thrice-weekly Airbus A320 passenger route to Tunis. The airline has awarded WFS a three-year contract to support this new route. While the number of weekly flights will be reduced to two for the winter season, Nouvelair has plans to enlarge its footprint at UK regional airports in 2023.
