Hans Airways selects Air Logistics Group as GSSA

UK-based start-up carrier Hans Airways has selected Air Logistics Group as its general sales and service agent (GSSA) for cargo sales across its network.

The exclusive GSSA agreement, effective from August 1, will see the GSSA providing the carrier with full cargo sales, marketing, online booking and customer service support across its network.

Air Logistics Group said the agreement is a “timely development” as Hans Airways prepares to launch its direct non-stop flights to India later this year and as it continues its drive towards gaining its UK Air Operator Certificate from the Civil Aviation Authority.

Stephen Dawkins, chief executive at Air Logistics Group, commented: “Hans Airways is an exciting new face in the airline industry and will be operating on a vital trade route between the UK and India.

“We are confident that their new service from the UK to India is just the start, and that we can build the cargo business across the Hans Airways network as it expands.”

Ian Davies, chief operating officer at Hans Airways, added: “In Air Logistics Group, we are confident that we have chosen a partner capable of providing the selling expertise, fast response times and service levels and that the freight community will expect from [us].

“With experienced staff, and the network to provide effective coverage of our planned routes, Air Logistics Group is well-positioned to be the face of the Hans Airways cargo team.”

Davies added: “Our business strategy from day one has been to work with market-leading suppliers and partners, like Air Logistics Group, allowing us to build the solid and robust foundations needed to succeed. There are more agreements in the pipeline that will show that Hans Airways means business.”
