Cargolux and Emirates SkyCargo sign cargo memorandum
The partners said the agreement, which was signed at the Air Cargo Europe event in Munich, is the first of its kind in the air cargo industry between a mainline airline and a specialized freighter operator.
Under the cooperation, Emirates SkyCargo will use Cargolux’s nose-loading Boeing 747 freighters for heavy and outsized cargo, complementing its own fleet of 13 777Fs and two 747-400ERFs
The two carriers will also “further develop” block space and interline agreements on each other’s networks. Emirates SkyCargo will launch freighter operations to Luxembourg from June, while Cargolux will step up its Dubai World Central (DWC) frequencies from 3X-weekly.
