The decision to launch scheduled cargo operations was taken by Volga-Dnepr’s Management team in autumn 2002.
As scheduled cargo operations differed fundamentally from Volga-Dnepr Airlines’ charter business – the Group’s core activity - the management team decided to create a new company, AirBridge Cargo. Established for work on the international scheduled cargo market, AirBridge Cargo became a new trade mark in Volga-Dnepr Group’s portfolio.
The Volga-Dnepr Group now offers its clients more than ever before, adding scheduled services linking Europe, China and Russia to an already impressive list of worldwide charter and trucking services.
Vice-President of the Volga-Dnepr Group of Companies, Stan Wraight, heads the international team of young and dynamic specialists. He has more than 30 years’ experience in senior air cargo sales, operations and marketing management positions with major international airlines and has extensive contacts in the worldwide air cargo industry.
Managing Director Denis Ilyin, formerly Director of Operations for Volga-Dnepr Airlines has worked at Volga-Dnepr since 1995. He has been promoted to the post of Managing Director of ABC starting Aprilб 2005 with responsibility for the day-to-day management of the airline, sales, production and finance.
Sander Van Woesik was appointed Sales and Marketing Director for Europe, Africa and the Middle East, and has brought valuable experience to the team having worked for Polar Air Cargo (USA), where he was a head of the Amsterdam-based sales office, and KLM cargo.
Robert Song is responsible for Sales and Customer Services for the Asia Pacific Region, based in Shanghai. Mr. Song was previously regional manager for cargo transportation at Air New Zealand.
Anton Khodakovsky is the AirBridge Cargo team leader for the Russia and CIS regions. He has previous experience leading the regional sales and customer service office for British Airways World Cargo in Russia. |
