To improve freight capacity to Longyearbyen in the short term, an offer of extra air freight has been established for the rest of the year.

The first of three planned flights is carried out on 17 October. The other flights are planned for 7 November and 30 December. The council will return with more information when these are confirmed.

The offer is administered by Pole Position Logistics, which handles orders and coordination of the freight. Businesses and others who need to send goods by air can contact the company directly for information on capacity, prices and ordering.

The following information must be provided when ordering:

Pickup address

Contact person

Weight and dimensions of the shipment

Pro forma invoice showing the value of the goods for customs clearance

All jobs are ordered by sending an email to booking@pole-position.no, with the pro forma invoice attached.

The extra air freight offer has been established as a temporary measure to ensure better access to transport capacity to and from Longyearbyen.
