Air France KLM Martinair Cargo has extended its block space agreement with China Cargo Airlines. It will allow the Chinese carrier to use Air France’s belly capacity for shipments from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport to São Paulo Guarulhos Airport in Brazil.

The decade-long collaboration between the two carriers began with an interline agreement and evolved into joint handling operations at Shanghai Pudong Airport (PVG), where Air France KLM is handled by China Cargo Airlines.

Air France KLM Cargo executive vice president, Adriaan de Heijer, said: “By capitalising on our extensive networks, we can provide even greater benefits to our customers. I look forward to the synergies we can generate together.”

President of China Cargo Airlines, Wang Jianmin, stated: “In the face of increasing challenges in the air cargo market, we are committed to building stronger and deeper partnerships. This step with Air France KLM Martinair Cargo is a significant move towards expanding our aviation network and enhancing our air logistics market.”
