Firstly, in the middle of January, 17.01 – 24.01.2010, Hansabuss did a cooperation with Estonian Skating Union by offering a full transportation for the European Figure Skating Championships Tallinn 2010. There were a lot of work to do, but all went well and smoothly. We were really satisfied with our clients and they were satisfied with us. It was our pleasure to be a partner for such a prestige event.
Secondly, Hansabuss also served the International Rail Forum “Strategic Partnership 1520: The Baltic Sea Region” which took place in Tallinn in February 2010. Our client was Russian Railways, so it required us a very professional international cooperation. And we did and offered it!
Hansabuss really learnt a lot from these two internationally important events. Now we are even more professional, better and internationally recognized bus transportation company!
Den store danske busoperatør Paaske Bus har siden 2006 gennem Vikingbus været medlem af Global Passenger Network (GPN), der tilbyder adgang til 17.000 busser i USA, Europa og Asien.
Det betyder, at danske kunder enkelt og effektivt kan leje busser overtalt i verden. Fordelen ved GPN-konceptet er, at kunderne kun behøver én kontakt, hvad enten transportbehovet er Svendborg, Stockholm eller San Francisco. Herudover er korrespondancen på dansk, ligesom faktura vil blive fremsendt i danske kroner.
GPN-netværket tæller nu medlemmer i 25 lande. Vikingbus var vært for det netop afholdte 9. halvårlige netværks-møde. Det foregik på Marriott Copenhagen fra 3. til 5. marts. På det tre dage lange møde deltog busoperatører fra 18 lande og de kunne samtidig byde Grækenland velkommen som nyt land i netværket.
Målet med netværket er at bringe kvalitetsbevidste busoperatører sammen og i fællesskab udbyde det bedste inden for sikkerhed, service og kvalitet på verdensplan. GPNs medlemmer er eksperter i alle former for busservice – alt fra transfers, events og kongresser til flerdagesture. Det danske medlem Vikingbus er ikke ubekendt med at løse stort transportopgaver. Sidste år var selskabet bl.a. ansvarlig for transporten i forbindelse med IOC-topmødet i København samt World Business Summit on Climate Change, der blev afholdt i Bella Center i maj 2009.
I 2010 udstiller GPN på RDA Trade Fair i Køln fra d. 27. til d. 29. maj og på WTM i London fra d. 8. til d. 11. november. Det næste GPN-møde afholdes i Reykjavik, Island, i november 2010.

From October 1st to October 9th 2009 Copenhagen hosted the 121st IOC Session & XII Olympic Congress. The purpose of the congress was to elect the host of the Olympic Games in 2016. The candidate cities were Chicago, Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro, and Madrid.
12 months before the congress in Copenhagen, IOC selected Vikingbus and partners to take charge of their transportation. At first the transport involved sightseeing tours for spouses, shuttle service from the airport to hotels, shuttle service from the venue of the congress (Bella Center) to hotels, and shuttle from hotels to the venue of the opening ceremony (Copenhagen Opera House). However, Vikingbus was also asked to manage the transportation for IOC members – this service was categorised as VIP. The VIP service involved managing the sponsored Mercedes-Benz limousines and IOC’s own limousine drivers. In total 40 limousines and 50 drivers.
In order to facilitate the communication between passengers, drivers, and logistics department Vikingbus set up a logistics office at the venue of the congress. Security measures during the congress were high and as a result all vehicles and personnel had to be security cleared.
Due to our status as official transportation provider for the IOC, Vikingbus was selected to take charge of transport for the candidate cities and their delegates. We were also chosen as the official transport provider for the Taekwondo World Championship and Copenhagen Open Karate Championship.
As a result of the IOC congress, Taekwondo World Championship, and Copenhagen Open Karate Championship Vikingbus is well prepared for COP 15 which will take place in Copenhagen from December 7th to December 18th 2009.
