Koi set to fly again soon

I mentioned last week about the disruption caused to Koi exports due to the volcano in Iceland - http://www.niigata-nishikigoi.com/node/752.

Whilst passenger flights resumed this week the initial indications were that it may be as much as 2 weeks before any Koi would be able to be shipped again as all cargo space was dedicated to priority cargo, perishable items, medical supplies and such like.

I learned yesterday that as early as next week Koi exports will be able to resume again to Europe as space becomes available, a great relief to breeders, exporters and dealers who of course are all keen to get Koi moving.
