My Freighter Airlines and American Airlines have agreed to an interline partnership that will allow both carriers to access each other’s cargo networks via North America, Europe and Central Asia.
Announced via a post on My Freighter Airlines’ LinkedIn account, the interline agreement has been in place since August 1 and is said to serve as a benchmark to cargo carriers around the world, showcasing the possibilities that can be achieved through mutual cooperation.
The My Freighter Airlines post said: “Through this interline, My Freighter Airlines will have access to 11 different destinations including New York (JFK), Philadelphia (PHL), Dallas (DFW), Charlotte (CLT), Houston (IAH), Amsterdam (AMS), London (LHR), Paris (CDG), Madrid (MAD), and Munich (MUC). In return, My Freighter Airlines can offer American Airlines access to our Tashkent (TAS) as our hub for flights and all of Central Asia through our RFS trucking network.”
The post continued: “We believe in creating a new ‘Silk Road’ linking the east and west through Central Asia. By partnering with American Airlines, this is the first step as we are now able to send cargo from North America to destinations in Central Asia seamlessly with a simple click of a button.”
“My Freighter Airlines operates a Boeing 767-300BCF to various destinations in Europe including Liege (LGG), Ostrava (OSR), Budapest (BUD), and Leipzig (LEJ). American Airlines Cargo network will benefit greatly, as they will have access to a maximum payload of up to 52 tonnes net, and 340 cbm on our aircraft.
“With a fleet of over 7x 767-300BCF, and access to American Airlines 1,012 weekly widebody Airbus aircrafts operating into Europe from the US. There is a huge opportunity for us to open the doors for American Airlines to tackle the Central Asian market, and vice versa for us to tackle the American Market which is one we are very keen on entering as there is a big Central Asian community living in the United States.”
