Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) has won a three-year contract to handle cargo for Singapore Airlines’ new services from Stockholm.

The airline launched five Airbus A350-900 flights a week connecting Singapore Changi Airport and Stockholm Arlanda Airport via Moscow, operating every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

WFS in Stockholm expects to handle 3-4,000 tonnes a year for Singapore Airlines and is the second new contract in Stockholm, having signed an agreement with Qatar Airways to handle 12,000 tonnes a year on board the airline’s 13 flights a week from Doha.

WFS regional vice president, Marc Claesen says: “Singapore Airlines’ decision to work with WFS at yet another station in Europe is another big boost for our cargo business in the region. It also once again reflects our ability to meet the highest service standards set by the world’s leading airlines.”
