Chapman Freeborn Poland hosts annual event for air charter clients
16th June 2008
Chapman Freeborn's Poland office hosted its annual picnic for travel agents this month at Babice Airport, Warsaw. The event was attended by 50 leading travel agents from across the country, and provided clients a chance to meet the charter team and enjoy a number of fun activities laid on for them.
Alongside food and drinks, the group was treated to scenic flights over Warsaw on four different types of aircraft chartered for the occasion.
The biggest attraction was a VIP configured An-2 (pictured below), an aircraft also known by its nickname ‘Annushka’. The An-2 was originally launched in 1947, and its 45 year production run was the longest for any aircraft ever.
This was the 12th successive year the picnic event has been run by Chapman Freeborn, which since opening in 1993 has grown into one of the foremost air charter specialists in Poland, with expertise in both passenger and cargo markets.
