6/29/2013 8:44:25 AM

Qantas Freight said it would introduce a weekly freight service between Australia and Papua New Guinea commencing July 6. The flight between Cairns, Brisbane and Port Moresby will be operated by a Boeing 737-300F aircraft, offering 15 tonnes of cargo capacity each way. Qantas Freight executive manager Lisa Brock said the export market between Australia and Papua New Guinea was strong and our new dedicated freighter service would provide much needed capacity on the route. The B737-300F will come from Qantas Freight’s existing fleet with additional flying time made possible through schedule enhancements. It adds to a network of dedicated freighter operations between Australia, mainland China, Hong Kong, the US and New Zealand.  Cargonews Asia
