Travel Biz News—
Cathay Cargo received “Cargo Airline of the Year” award recently at the 49th Annual Airline Industry Achievement Awards produced by Air Transport World (ATW).
The coveted award pays tribute to Cathay Cargo for overcoming major operational challenges in 2022, as well as for its growth, investment, innovation and ambition to become the world’s most customer-centric air-cargo service brand.
The awards recognise excellence across a broad range of airline operations and are selected by a panel of editors and analysts at ATW, Routes, Aviation Week and CAPA.
Speaking about this year’s winners, ATW Editor-in-Chief Karen Walker said: “The final selections illustrate the strength of the market recovery across the air transport industry, and it is particularly heartening to see that also reflected among airlines in the Asia-Pacific region.”
“We are honoured to be recognised with this major award decided by so many industry experts, and we are very grateful to Air Transport World. It reflects the progressiveness of our cargo colleagues around the world in responding to the needs of our customers and their can-do spirit in delivering operational excellence. Already this year, we have kept up the momentum by introducing Cathay Mail, which brings greater shipment visibility to our postal customers, and inaugurating commercial multi-modal shipments from our extended home base of the Greater Bay Area by accepting shipments by sea from the Hong Kong International Airport Logistics Park in Dongguan, ” said Cathay Pacific Director Cargo Tom Owen.
Since the award announcement earlier in the Spring, Cathay Cargo has been announced as the host airline for the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) World Cargo Symposium 2024, which will bring together air cargo professionals from around the world to discuss the latest trends, challenges and opportunities in areas including technology and innovation, security and customs, cargo operations, and sustainability.
