Gifts from heaven
As online orders increase towards the end of the year, the Australian air cargo company Qantas Freight is preparing to deliver international and domestic freight totalling more than 50,000 t during the Christmas season. To match the atmosphere of the festive season, the carrier announced in a press release that one of its six A321 freighters "has been gift wrapped in a new Santa's freight livery.”
Qantas Freight’s airfreight volumes are projected to grow about 5%, compared to the festive season of the previous year. "While Santa and his elves have been preparing to fly gifts for kids around the world, Qantas Freight has been busy getting our fleet of freight sleighs ready for the Christmas peak," says Igor Kwiatowski, executive manager of Qantas Freight.
