The shuttle flights will operate between Hamburg Airport and the Husum/Schwesing airfield, just three kilometres away from the trade fair site. Services for the trade fair visitors will start at Hamburg Airport. Passengers will have access to their own lounge there. As a result, ACS will provide exhibitors and visitors with the fastest and most comfortable way of travelling to and from the fair. Tickets are available for as little as EUR 189 (plus the applicable rate of VAT). Bookings and reservations can be made directly on the home page (the online shop) at www.husumwindenergy.com. It is also possible to reach the trade fair from any other location in a simple and flexible manner by using the global charter services operated by ACS.

ACS will also offer pleasure flights over the region, which will allow passengers to gain very unusual impressions of Northern Friesland and its coastal region from a new perspective.

"We're delighted that the partnership with Air Charter Service will provide a direct link between the wind power sector's most important trade fair and scheduled European air services through Hamburg. This is an ideal opportunity to enable people to reach our trade fair site in the breezy region of Northern Friesland in an easy, uncomplicated manner. This will also ease the congestion for local traffic," says Peter Becker, Managing Director of Messe Husum & Congress.

Alexander Hertle, General Manager of Air Charter Service Deutschland, underlines the following message: "Our flights from Hamburg provide a time-saving and reasonably priced alternative, particularly for the many people attending the fair who have very busy schedules."

HUSUM WindEnergy is not only the most important trade fair in the international wind power sector, but it has also been the leading meeting point for all the major players and decision-makers for almost 25 years.
