    Etihad Cargo picks up 2015 Air Transport News Award in Switzerland for cargo services

    Etihad Cargo, the wholly-owned division of the UAE’s national carrier, Etihad Airways was awarded ‘Cargo Airline of the Year’ at this year’s Air Transport News Awards, hosted in Geneva, Switzerland on 21st March.

    The awards, which are decided by a panel of industry experts cited the airline’s commitment to developing the global freight market, through the expansion of new routes, exclusive to the airline’s cargo arm, which include Chittagong, Djibouti, Dubai World Central, Eldoret, Guangzhou, Houston, Kabul, Miami, Quito, Sharjah, Viracopos and most recently Hanoi. We are honoured to receive this award in recognition of our commitment to working closely with our partners across the industry

    Speaking on behalf of the airline, Kevin Knight, Etihad Airways’ chief strategy and planning officer, said; “We are honoured to receive this award in recognition of our commitment to working closely with our partners across the industry, ensuring our customers have greater access to new routes and services that enhance their two-way flow of trade and commerce between key and the emerging markets across our global network.”

    Etihad Cargo expanded its fleet to 10 aircraft last year following the placement of a Boeing 747-400 from Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings Inc in November 2014, the third of its type to be leased from the NASDAQ listed aviation solutions provider in as many years.

    The United Arab Emirates collected three awards from an available 18 at the ATN Awards, including Dubai International Airport, which won ‘Airport of the Year’, and Captain Aysha Al Hameli, UAE Representative to ICAO who picked up ‘Woman of the Year’.
