CMA CGM AIR CARGO’s first Airbus A330-200F will begin regular commercial operations from Liege, Belgium, to Chicago, United States. It will be joined on March 16 by a second Airbus A330-200F that will also serve the U.S. market, doubling the total offered capacity.

ECS Group, a leading GSA, will be in charge of marketing CMA CGM AIR CARGO’s services.
The CMA CGM Group has also decided to develop a blocked space agreement onboard its aircraft with its subsidiary CEVA Logistics.
Xavier Eiglier, Director of CMA CGM AIR CARGO, comments: “The launch of CMA CGM AIR CARGO represents a significant event in developing a comprehensive range of logistics services for the CMA CGM Group’s clients.
