Commenting on the new contract, Erik de Goeij, CEO dnata, The Netherlands, said: "We are honoured that China Eastern has selected dnata to be their preferred cargo handling partner. It underpins our ability and innate understanding of the requirements of Asian carriers, to provide them with the service they expect.
