EAS International a member of the X2 Critical forwarder alliance has organised an Airbus A310 freighter full charter flight to transport automotive parts from Romania to Turkey.

Marco Muggianu, development director for EAS (the alliance member responsible for France and Romania) said: “The operation was very difficult due to the very bad weather conditions in Romania including snow, ice and minus 15 degree temperatures.”

Muggianu approached fellow X2 Critical member Qualitair & Sea Istanbul (QAS). In collaboration they chartered freighter and loaded the aircraft with 25-tons of automotive parts.

The entire operation was prepared, shipped and arrived in less than 24 hours door to door.

Added Muggianu: “This was a real X2 Critical members’ success story. The network specialises in providing value added services specifically meeting the needs of the aviation, aerospace and maritime industries."
