Cuba wants to create air cargo hub

Russian air transport specialist Volga-Dnepr Group said it is
participating in a working group to help plan an air cargo hub in
Havana, Cuba.
The panel, organized by the Russian and Cuban governments, is
analyzing air cargo flows from the Americas to all parts of the world
and the potential for increased efficiency from having a hub at Jose
Marti Airport. A positive determination could lead to construction of an
air cargo facility by 2011.
For its part, Volga-Dnepr will study whether flight operations to
Havana by charter airline Volga-Dnepr Airlines and scheduled airline
AirBridge Cargo are commercially viable.
