MIAMI – With the uptick in the air cargo market, Pittsburgh International Airport (PIT) received on Tuesday its second unique cargo flight amid the pandemic. Finnair (AY) has started a cargo charter route carrying automotive parts for one of its Asian customers.
The route will leave Asia in the morning and will have a quick crew change and refueling in Helsinki (HEL) in the afternoon before taking off again and arriving to PIT in the early evening the same day. Due to the PIT, the operation will be short-term and will continue through May. AY officials said they are hopeful to see the service expand beyond the initial schedule.
