Having launched FlyingTalkers, a weekly podcast every Monday for air cargo 18 months ago, I guess we could only expect that it would just be a matter of time until someone came along and branded Cargo Talks.
Turkish Airlines Cargo is putting up Cargo Talks, a first-time webinar that takes place beginning at 11:30 GMT Tuesday February 10.
Rates Clobber India Flower Exports
The flower farms at Bengaluru, Pune and a few other places are alive with color but this has not brought smiles to the growers and exporters.
Reason: Covid-19 and its aftermath.
Let’s separate the signal from the noise. Praveen Sharma, President, Indian Society of Floriculture Professionals (IFSP) was blunt when he told FlyingTalkers:
“2020 was the toughest year in the recent past for Indian flower growers for two reasons: the Covid-19 lockdown and the Nisarg Cyclone.”

It is Lunar New Year: 2021 is the Year of the Ox. The new moon on February 11 heralds a new year that begins on Feb. 12, according to the lunar calendar.
But we are locked down during COVID-19 and going out for celebrations now is not an option.
But we are in this air cargo business and as such, we are also dreamers and doers.
So relax and dream a little dream about your post pandemic business life returning to include an expanded view toward travel.
