It would be the 6th Chines airline after Great Wall Airlines, Jade Cargo, China Airlines Cargo, China Southern and Cathay Pacific to start full freighter flight to AMS.
Wow , that would be really nice! I really love the paint on those 74F's!
They're more than welcome, i'd say!

Please note that China Cargo Airlines bought Great Wall Airlines and these two cargo airlines are both owned by China Eastern Airlines. The airlines will be integrated into one cargo airline this summer under the name China Cargo Airlines. It is therefore very likely that China Cargo Airlines replaces Great Wall Airlines at Amsterdam Schiphol, as China Cargo proposes to fly a very similar schedule on the same routes as Great Wall.
I did a search but couldn't find anything about the new service of Centurion. They are supposed to start a freighter service between AMS and MEX each Wednesday and Sunday as of June 5th. Aircraft will be MD-11. Departure time ex AMS will be 15:00 local according to their advertisement on OAGCargo.com.
Op de site van Georgian Airways deze mededeling is gepubliceerd (in Engels)
On March 31 Code Share Agreement was signed between Georgian Airways and KLM. The agreement offers wider opportunities to the airline in international passenger transportation. The agreement with KLM also tightens partnership between Delta Air Lines and Georgian Airways. Under the Code Share Agreement Georgian Airways has an access to the network of destinations operated by KLM and Delta. Georgian passengers will be able to book air tickets to North American, British and Western Europe destinations operated by Georgian Airways partners. Due to the wider range of choice, easily accessible and comfortable flights, conclusion of the agreement will also facilitate to the boost of passenger flow from these destinations to Georgia.
The flights will be operated under the codes of all three companies -KLM, Delta and Georgian Airways. Georgian Airways will continue regular operations to Amsterdam under Airzena, KLM and Delta Air Lines codes. Frequency of flights will be increased to four weekly flights starting from May 2011; and five weekly flights from August 2011.
Conclusion of Code Share Agreement among the companies suggests that the fares will be competitive and safety and service standards will be the same on all flights operated by the three airlines.
Er staat dat vanaf Mei 4 vluchten per week worden uitgevoerd, maar hoe ik ook zoek, ik kan maar 3 vluchten per week vinden. Op maandag, woensdag en vrijdag. Enig idee wanneer de 4de vlucht gaat worden uitgevoerd?

Welke dagen en tijden zijn dat?
11:10-12:10 on Tuesday and Friday
Amadeus is showing A319 iso A320 as equipment used
On a side note, flights are still not bookable on their website and AMS is not shown as a destination. AMS is however included in their mileage accural list.

In addittion to my info posted above, I can't even find any tickets on sale anymore between Baku and AMS. A month ago you could buy a ticket on http://www.amadeus.net (best fares) and other outlets like http://www.vliegtarieven.nl. I just did a search on several websites for several dates, but nothing came up.
The flights are still loaded throughout the summer season on Amadeus, but their availability tool now lists flights as on request only. No flights have been loaded for the winter season.
Maybe phkza could give more information.
How likely is it given the above they will indeed operate their first flight next Tuesday? We will have to wait and see.....
