Emirates SkyCargo has expanded its cargo connectivity to 100 destinations including the Maldives.
Emirates SkyCargo revealed it will be operating scheduled cargo flights to 100 destinations across six continents starting in July. Emirates SkyCargo said some of the new cities added to the air cargo carrier's network include Accra, Algiers, Athens, Fort Lauderdale, Glasgow, Larnaca, Los Angeles, Moscow, Phnom Penh, Rome, Santiago, Sialkot, Tunis and Male'.
The network expansion is in response to the growing economic activity and demand for air cargo capacity from markets across the world along with the increased passenger flight operations of Emirates. Emirates SkyCargo noted by offering multiple daily or weekly cargo flight frequencies to major production and consumer markets, the carrier is helping facilitate supplies of goods required for combatting the current pandemic as well as machinery and equipment required for manufacturing and several key economic sectors across global trade lanes.
Furthermore, in addition to scheduled services, Emirates SkyCargo also operates a number of special charter flights every week to transport a range of commodities from personal protective equipment (PPE) and pharmaceuticals to food and outsized machinery and components.
