Air France Cargo handles all its freight at one of Europe’s largest cargo hubs, G1XL at Paris-CDG, benefiting from modern technology including the automated parcel stocker and the electronic labelling of containers.
Air France Cargo loads all the freight into the hold of Air France passenger aircraft and 12 Boeing 747F freighters. Five Boeing 777Fs have been ordered. By winter 2009, the Air France Cargo fleet will comprise the following modern aircraft: Boeing 747-400ERFs, 747-400Fs and 777Fs.
Since the merger between Air France and KLM in 2004, Air France Cargo and KLM cargo have strengthened their cooperation in the cargo field. In October 2005, in response to the fundamental principle of "one face to customer" the Joint Cargo Team was set up, with a joint sales and marketing division. This enables the Group to offer its customers one contact point, and a single contract and network, with the choice of two operating systems, via Paris-CDG or Amsterdam-Schiphol, or a combination of the two hubs.
By combining their strengths in the cargo sector, Air France-KLM Cargo has become the worldwide market leader excluding integrators, with a cumulated revenue of 2.91 billion euros.
Air France Cargo and KLM Cargo are part of SkyTeam Cargo, the world’s foremost cargo Alliance, covering the main strategic commercial routes with 728 destinations worldwide.
