Shanghai-based Oriental Sky Aviation has become the first Chinese General Sales and Service Agent (GSSA) to join Awery Aviation Software's CargoBooking platform, making its airline capacity and services available for digital quotations and bookings through the online marketplace.
The agreement was announced at Air Cargo Shanghai on June 24 and builds on an existing partnership between the two companies. Oriental Sky has been using Awery's Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system since 2022 to support its GSSA and charter operations.
With the integration, freight forwarders will be able to access Oriental Sky's airline portfolio through a single digital interface. The move is expected to streamline quotation requests, booking processes and shipment management by providing direct digital access to available capacity.
Oriental Sky's network spans 20 airline partners across 14 countries and 21 locations. Through CargoBooking, this capacity will be accessible to freight forwarders seeking cargo space and related services through an online platform.
The development reflects broader efforts within the air cargo sector to digitise booking and capacity distribution processes. By bringing GSSA-managed airline capacity onto digital marketplaces, stakeholders aim to reduce manual workflows and improve speed and transparency in cargo transactions.
"We are looking forward to expanding our relationship with Oriental Sky by bringing its capacity to CargoBooking, following the successful implementation of our ERP platform across its business," said Vitaly Smilianets, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Awery.
“China is one of the world’s most digitally advanced air cargo markets, and Oriental Sky’s decision to join the platform reflects the strength and competitiveness of the technology we continue to develop for the industry.
“Welcoming our first Chinese GSSA onto CargoBooking is an important milestone, and we are particularly pleased to announce this partnership here in Shanghai.”
The addition of Oriental Sky expands CargoBooking's presence in the Chinese market at a time when digital adoption continues to reshape air cargo operations. China remains a major hub for global air freight flows, making digital connectivity between airlines, GSSAs and freight forwarders an area of growing focus.
Oriental Sky provides cargo representation, total cargo management, charter operations, interline services and value-added logistics solutions for airline partners across 21 countries. The company said digitalisation remains central to its operational strategy and customer service approach.
“Digitalisation remains a key priority across all areas of our business as we continue to enhance the services we provide to airline partners and customers,” said Rush Wang, Founder and President, Oriental Sky.
“Having worked with Awery for a number of years, we have seen first-hand the benefits that its technology can bring to our operations.
“Joining CargoBooking was therefore a natural next step, enabling us to further improve accessibility to our network while supporting greater efficiency for our customers.”
Representatives from both companies are attending transport logistic Shanghai, where Awery is exhibiting in Hall 5 at Stand 641 and Oriental Sky is exhibiting in Hall W5 at Stand 551. The announcement highlights the increasing role of digital platforms in connecting cargo capacity providers with freight forwarders as the industry continues to seek greater operational efficiency and network visibility.
