Today at 15:30 p.m. the first of two cargo flights with the important medical cargo from China landed.

The demand for high-quality medical products - currently mainly FFP2 masks and rapid antigen tests - continues to increase significantly in many European countries due to the new regulations. In order to meet this demand, Diwa Medical, in cooperation with Belenos GmbH and the logistics company Quehenberger and Sky Cargo Solutions, brings around 2 million masks from China to Austria on a Boeing 777-200. Graz Airport was selected as the destination airport.

"We are of course very pleased that the FFP2 masks are transported via Graz Airport and that we can once again show that we also handle large-capacity aircraft professionally," explains Wolfgang Grimus, Managing Director of Graz Airport we have been working closely with Swissport for several years, an important business segment for us. "

Since the beginning of the Corona crisis, regular charter flights to Central and Eastern Europe have been reported. "We are pleased to be able to demonstrate our know-how in handling cargo planes in Graz", says Andreas Ottendorf, station manager of Swissport Cargo Services Graz.
