HONG Kong Air Cargo Terminals Limited (Hactl) handled 104 freighters in just 24 hours on November 3 topping its previous record of 102 freighters that was achieved two years earlier.
The company said its new IT system and airside management app have raised both its efficiency and productivity. It is also the only cargo handler in the special administrative region that can offer terminal- and ramp-handling of freighters in a single service package, reported London's Air Cargo News.
Hactl's chief executive Wilson Kwong was quoted as saying: 'Recent new business wins, together with growth in demand ahead of Thanksgiving and Christmas, have come together to achieve this impressive result. But it's once again the remarkable team I am so proud to lead, which pulled out all the stops around the clock, to ensure that every aircraft successfully maintained its tight turnaround schedule.'
He added: 'To have successfully processed 104 widebody freighters in just 24 hours is a clear illustration of the immense scale of our operations and resources.'
