CEVA Logistics has added a weekly B747 freighter from Seoul to Chicago via China’s Wuxi Sunan Shuofang International Airport in southern Jiangsu Province.
In an expansion of CEVA’s global SKYCAPACITY airfreight program, a contract signing ceremony was held in Wuxi, to celebrate the newly launched intercontinental airfreight route.
The CEVA SKYCAPACITY program currently offers a variety of destinations to and from North and South America, Europe and Asia Pacific. The owned, controlled network spans multiple carriers and includes freighter, pax freighter and passenger capacity — all available with management, tracking and customs services.
Current and new customers are able to benefit from CEVA’s owned, controlled capacity of dozens of flights every week, offering consistent pricing and guaranteed capacity despite market peaks and lows. The network is also available as a spot cargo solution for customers.
Located in Eastern China near Shanghai, Wuxi is experiencing continued growth and development in international trade.
Joanna Zhu, Managing Director for North Asia, CEVA Logistics, said: “The new lane marks the very first time for us that an airfreight route connects two countries in North Asia, expanding our airfreight service capabilities.
“We are also impressed with the dedication and professionalism of the Sunan Airport, as well as the local government’s efficiency. Wuxi is definitely considered an important airfreight hub for CEVA, and we expect to connect more routes here in the near future.”
