  • Noord Natie: fusion et recherche d’un troisième partenaire restent les objectifs
    La réunion, mardi dernier, des actionnaires de la Noord Natie n’a pas causé de surprise. Ils ont été informés de l’évolution de la situation et tout semble indiquer que les négociations axées sur la fusion avec la Hessenatie se poursuivent, ceci pour permettre à l’entreprise de renforcer, en tant que manutentionnaire local, sa position dans le delta de l’Escaut. D’autre part, la recherche d’un troisième partenaire structurel s’avère positive. Un certain nombre de candidats (moins de huit) ont été retenus et pourront poursuivre l’examen du dossier jusqu’en octobre.
  • Les agents de fret aérien restent sceptiques quant aux exigences en termes de sécurisation
    Les expéditeurs de fret aérien continuent à avoir des doutes au sujet des exigences posées par les compagnies aériennes - et/ou certaines autorités - sur le plan de la sécurisation. Cette question a été abordée au cours de la réunion du Fiata Airfreight Institute à Rotterdam. En ce qui concerne le cargo agency agreement, on semble voir le bout du tunnel. Parmi les autres sujets traités, citons le rôle de l’ICT et les conséquences de la constitution d’alliances.

Des barrages filtrants seront plus que probablement mis en place aux frontières luxembourgeoises. Normalement, le trafic des voitures devrait être possible, mais pas celui des camions. La distribution de tracts devrait toutefois réalentir de facto tout le trafic.
