Irish Post Office awards mail carriage to airBaltic

JOC Staff |
An Post, the Irish Post Office, has awarded a contract to airBaltic for the carriage of mail between Ireland and Riga (Latvia), Vilnius (Lithuania) and Tallinn (Estonia).

Mail is sent from Ireland to these countries three times per week, coinciding with three of airBaltic’s four weekly services ex Dublin.

Says Ian McCool, Managing Director of IAM, which is airBaltic’s Irish cargo GSSA: “We are talking modest traffic levels, amounting to around 36,000 kilos per annum. But this is the first time airBaltic has won business from An Post, and we are very pleased both with this prestigious contract and also with the welcome additional revenue.”

IAM is the lead company in a successful aviation services group, represents 13 major airlines, and is the exclusive Irish member of EGSAC, the world’s largest GSA network with 130+ stations in 30+ countries.
