Danish logistics firm DSV has started a weekly scheduled freighter service between Chicago Rockford International and Incheon International Airport in South Korea. The flight will depart from Rockford on Saturday.
DSV plans to introduce a service between Rockford and Chennai International in India later this year.
Rockford executive director, Zack Oakley, said: “The launch of our Incheon service marks another important milestone in our long-term strategy to increase Rockford’s connectivity with Asia. “Together with our Shanghai and Luxembourg services, we offer reliable, scheduled connections linking the US with Europe and Asia through a dedicated cargo airport built around speed, efficiency, and operational reliability.”
DSV vice president Mohamed Siraj, added: “Incheon is one of Asia’s most important cargo hubs, and with this new service, DSV can provide reliable capacity and connectivity via the network we are building through Rockford. The airport has consistently demonstrated the operational reliability and flexibility needed to support scheduled international freighter services, making it a natural choice as we continue developing our air cargo operations.”
