CEVA Logistics, now a unit of French shipping giant CMA CGM, has entered into an agreement with Wuxi Sunan Shuofang International Airport and its affiliate logistics company to serve the North Asia market.
The new ICN-WUX-ORD route will be operated with a Boeing 747 full freighter, said the CEVA press release.
A contract signing ceremony was recently held in Wuxi, near Shanghai, to celebrate the newly launched intercontinental air freight route. Starting from Seoul to Chicago via Wuxi, the weekly flights brings more freight shipment support for customers in these and connected markets.
The CEVA SkyCapacity programme 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 leading 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, said the CEVA statement.
'The new ICN-WUX-ORD route offers stable service and solutions to our customers in the challenging 2021 market,' said CEVA North Asia chief Joanna Zhu.
'The new lane marks the very first time for us that an air freight route connects two countries in North Asia, expanding our air freight 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 air freight hub for CEVA, and we expect to connect more routes here in the near future,'she said.
