EAST cargo to launch weekly cargo flight to Seychelles

EAST (Euro African Star Transport) Services cargo has announced the launch of a weekly cargo service to the Seychelles, commencing Saturday March 6, 2021.

EAST Cargo, owned by Dr Carol Nalletamby, a Seychelloise formerly residing in Europe, is an import/export company that has been importing products to the Seychelles for over three years now.

Dr Nalletamby relocated back to the Seychelles five months ago, to help with the launch of Seychelles International Airways (SIA), of which she is a shareholder.

The first flight will arrive at the Seychelles International Airport in the early morning hours of Saturday March 6. It will be conducted by an Airbus A330 passenger/freighter, chartered from a world-renowned airline as per EAST Cargo’s request, to meet the needs of the Seychelles market. The aircraft can carry up to 35 tonnes of cargo in the cargo hold and main deck combined. EAST Cargo expects an inbound tonnage of 24 tonnes and estimated outbound tonnage of 16 tonnes.

According to Dr Nalletamby, this particular aircraft is on a six-week trial period to ascertain its suitability to the cargo requirements and fish exports of the Seychelles, after which a decision on the appropriate aircraft size will be made for a longer-term period.

For cargo enquiries to and from any destination in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and the Americas, please contact Dr Nalletamby on 2535373/4374003 or email eastcargoeuroafrica@gmail.com
