By GlobalDataAgainst the backdrop of increasing air cargo volumes between Asia and North America, NorthLink expects to offer refuelling, deicing and other capabilities to air carriers.
The company also aims to provide facilities for safely exchanging cargo at ANC.
Last November, private equity firm Tiger Infrastructure Partners acquired a controlling stake in NorthLink Aviation.
NorthLink CEO Sean Dolan said, “We understand the critical importance of ANC to National’s global operations and are eager to build a long-term partnership with the National team.”
NorthLink Aviation has already signed a 55-year concession for a 120-acre property on ANC’s South Park campus.
The company is currently building infrastructure for aircraft parking, fuelling, deicing and other facilities at the campus.
ANC is said to be one of the busiest cargo airports in the world and provides refuelling facilities for transpacific air cargo.
