Emirates SkyCargo, the award-winning airfreight division of Emirates Airline, has officially opened its new office at Suvarnabhumi Airport.
Located on the 4th floor of the Free Zone Operator Building at Suvarnabhumi airport, the Emirates SkyCargo office is operated by 14 dedicated staff responsible for reservations, sales and operations.
Emirates SkyCargo provides capacity of 1,600 tonnes for its customers in Thailand. The majority of the shipments are bound for Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia cargo includes electronic parts, auto parts, fresh food, vegetables, and garments.
Aniruth Songsatya, Cargo Manager Thailand & Indochina said: “Emirates SkyCargo is committed to providing a wide range of leading-edge, innovative and value-added air cargo products and solutions for our Thai customers.”
“The new office moves us closer to our customers and offers our supply chain partners a convenient gateway to and from Suvarnabhumi airport. As most of our partners are based in the cargo free zone area, our new office offers maximum convenience and enhances our capability to monitor movements of cargo at the cargo terminal located at the airport. The move also underlines our growth in Thailand and our position as a leading global airfreight logistics provider,” he added.
Earlier this year, Emirates SkyCargo was nominated as “Cargo Airline of the Year” by the editors of Air Transport World at the 2007 Airline Industry Achievement Awards programme.
From Thailand, Emirates operates 19 flights per week to Dubai, 10 flights per week to Hong Kong and 7 flights per week to Sydney and Auckland. The airline utilises Boeing 777-300ERs and 777-300s aircraft on the route, with each aircraft offering cargo capacity between 16.5 tonnes to 23 tonnes
