Asia Airfreight Terminal completes cargo carrier migration

Cargo Matters
Back in March 2017, it was announced that Hong Kong Airlines and its cargo subsidiary, Hong Kong Air Cargo Carrier, would be moving their cargo operations to the Asia Airfreight Terminal.

The move was finally completed on November 8, and the cargo for both airlines is now handled by AAT.

Based in Hong Kong, Hong Kong Airlines was established in 2006 and its network has expanded rapidly over the past few years to more than 40 destinations in the Asia Pacific region. This year has seen Hong Kong Airlines commence service to North America, starting with Vancouver, and with Los Angeles flights due to begin in December.

Hong Kong Air Cargo Carrier, an all-cargo airline established in April 2017, provides international air freight transportation services to more than 15 destinations using a fleet of A330-200s. Similar to its passenger counterpart, it also has plans to further expand its network globally.

The addition of Hong Kong Airlines and Hong Kong Air Cargo Carrier to the AAT family is expected to contribute significantly to the scale of AAT operations.
