Cargo charter flights

In cases where transportation of cargo by regular flights is impossible or does not meet the Customer's requirements, to organise a cargo charter flight serves as an alternative. An important advantage of this method of cargo delivery is the possibility to transport large consignments of cargo on one flight, as the aircraft is fully chartered for one Customer, as well as the possibility of transporting non-standard cargo (heavy, oversized and dangerous goods prohibited for carriage on scheduled flights).
