Carrier stays agile in a volatile air cargo environment
Turkish Cargo will soon provide global forwarders the ability to conduct real-time eBookings, access live rates, and see available air cargo capacity through WebCargo, a Freightos Group company. This provides critical agility as air cargo contends with unexpected shifts due to the global pandemic.
“Live access to capacity and price supports our ongoing commitment to provide Hellman customers with outstanding service,” noted Christian Tesch, Director Airfreight Carrier Relations & Procurement at Hellmann Worldwide Logistics.
Turkish Cargo will first roll out on WebCargo in Spain and India, and will be quickly followed by roll outs in several more countries. With the airline’s shift to global eBookings, more than 20% of global air cargo capacity will now be digitized, providing more than 2,000 WebCargo forwarders customers across over 10,000 global branches with instant access to capacity and pricing.
“As the air cargo brand with one of the widest networks in the world, we focus on digital solutions,” remarked Turhan OZEN, Chief Cargo Officer, Turkish Airlines.
“In the past year, eBookings have increased tenfold on WebCargo, making it clear that the future of air cargo is digital,” commented Manel Galindo, CEO of WebCargo.
