American Airlines Cargo, CargoAi expand partnership across Europe
Following successful launch in France, collaboration now extends to 11 European countries
American Airlines Cargo announced the expansion of its partnership with CargoAi, a digital enabler for the air cargo industry.
The expansion aims to enhance airfreight booking capabilities on CargoMART, CargoAi’s platform for freight management, by integrating American Airlines Cargo’s network, according to an official release from American Airlines Cargo.
Following a successful initial launch in France, the cargo carrier has now extended its network on the CargoMART platform to include origins in Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, U.K., Spain, and Switzerland.
American Airlines Cargo will continue to integrate into CargoMART, offering freight forwarders access to a comprehensive network of routes and a streamlined booking process, says the release.
The advanced technology and functionalities of CargoMART complement the carrier’s own digital booking platform, aacargo.com, thereby enhancing the digital experience for customers seeking capacity and managing bookings on American’s cargo network.
“We are excited to announce our inaugural launch on CargoAI following a successful test run out of France,” says Greg Schwendinger, President, American Airlines Cargo. “This is the first milestone in what we expect to be a strong and collaborative partnership with CargoAI, as well as a crucial part of our digital distribution strategy to expand our network reach to more cargo customers.”
Matt Petot, CEO, CargoAi adds: “We are delighted to extend our collaboration with American Airlines Cargo to multiple European origins. This partnership underscores our commitment to providing our users with best-in-class digital solutions that optimise their operations and drive efficiency in the air cargo industry.”
CargoMART provides a range of features including real-time capacity and rate visibility, quoting, e-Booking, and Track and Trace functionalities. One differentiating feature of the platform is the ability to compare flight options by carbon emissions, track CO2 emissions at a shipment level and purchase sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) whenever required, the release added.
