West Air Sweden (Gothenburg Landvetter) has agreed to a new contract with the Norwegian postal service, Posten Norge A/S, to provide domestic air transportation of mail. The agreement, which begins in August 2015 and runs until July 2020, will see the six BAe ATP(F)s and two CRJ(F)s retained as per their existing arrangement, signed in 2011.

“The new contract allows Posten Norge A/S and West Atlantic to continue our successful business relationship, founded during the introduction of a dedicated freighter network in 2007 with West Atlantic’s customized fleet,” West Atlantic’s CEO Gustaf Thureborn said.

The new contract benefits postal customers by providing service improvements, and other planned operational improvements, for up to eight years.
