Feature:
From Hackney To Husky In Norway
“An airport in Norway is putting the
cart before the hackney cab with the addition of a ‘dog taxi’…The sled, which
harnesses 8 Alaskan huskies to whisk passengers on the 45-minute journey from
Kirkenes Airport to the Kirenes Snow Hotel, is the first of its kind in the
country… Ronny Ostrem, the hotel’s chief executive & promoter of the
scheme…said it was a resounding success’…We met 100 reindeer on the way back as
we were driving south… It really good felt to get started’. Ostrem hopes to
make the canine cab a permanent feature…the trip is expected to set riders back
2,300 krone ($400).”
