Foreign airlines seek to expand cargo operations in Cuba

Havana, Sep 2 (Prensa Latina) Cuba held talks with INVICTA Charter Limited for possible cargo operations through the Skyway Airline to airports outside of Havana, Cuba´s Institute of Civil Aeronautics (IACC) reported.

According to a press release, IACC is also holding talks with IBC Airline´s senior officials for implementing cargo flights to operate with CUBAMAX Charter Company, authorized to fly to Havana and other airports nationwide.

The talks came in response to requests made by these companies and respective airlines that the US government authorized emergency exceptions in favor of Skyway and IBC in July.

These provisions enable the charter companies to operate cargo flights to Cuba weekly, including an additional flight per week to any other airport for Skyway, and up to five cargo flights weekly to any airport for IBC, IACC reported.
