Icelandair Cargo in cooperation with Fly Fresh Freight, a Canadian freight forwarder started a direct Boeing 757-200 freighter service between Keflavik, Iceland and Gander, Newfoundland. Commodities are mainly fresh seafood products and air freight linked to the growing oil and gas industry of Newfoundland. With this new connection Newfoundland is able to connect into the freighter network that Icelandair Cargo offers from Keflavik to several European markets including UK. The first flight was November 16th and will continue every Friday until December 21st. Flights will then commence again in January 2008.
