HC Deb 18 June 1936 vol 313 c1192W
Mr. MANDER

asked the Postmaster-General why all postal parcels sent by air from Burma to England go by steamer and rail to Karachi before being despatched by air from there; and whether he will endeavour to arrange for them to go all the way by air?

The question of the future of air parcel services will come under review in connection with the introduction of the Empire Air Mail scheme next year.
