Cargo Flights Waning in Tallinn Airport
Confusion with Russian customs caused cargo flights to decrease by 43 percent at Tallinn Airport last year, according to Erik Sakkov, an airport management board member.
A total of 11,960 tons of goods (including mail) were flown through the Lennart Meri Tallinn Airport in 2010, with the first two months of the year being the busiest.
Sakkov told Äripäev that fixing the situation is out of the airport's hands. In March, Sakkov had told the newspaper in an interview that Estonia's popularity as a transit country for Russian business was declining.
Meanwhile, passenger flights through Tallinn Airport grew last year by 2.9 percent.
