Singapore Airlines is that latest airline to publish its cargo capacity on WebCargo by Freightos, thus expanding booking options in and across Asia and WebCargo’s Asian footprint at the same time. Asia is a fast-growing market. WebCargo saw more than twice as many bookings from Asia origins between Q4 2022 and Q4 2023, and more and more users are coming to the platform as digitalization incases in the region. With a significant carrier such as Singapore Airlines, this trend will accelerate. Singapore Airlines operates a fleet of seven Boeing 747-400F freighters and more than 190 Singapore Airlines and Scoot passenger aircraft. Over 120 destinations are on offer at real-time rates for real-time air cargo bookings. Top Asia-Pacific destinations are Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Indonesia, Thailand and Vietnam.
Marvin Tan, Senior Vice President Cargo, Singapore Airlines, commented: “Singapore Airlines’ partnership with WebCargo expands our reach to new markets, and provides our customers with a seamless user experience when they search, book, and track their shipments in real time. This enables us to better serve our customers by responding even more swiftly to their evolving needs.”
Manel Galindo, Chief Revenue Officer of Freightos, state: “We’re thrilled to work with Singapore Airlines. Their commitment to digital innovation aligns perfectly with WebCargo’s mission to provide seamless and efficient booking solutions for the air cargo industry and allows us to double down on the recent surge in bookings from Asia. This collaboration will enhance the booking experience for thousands of freight forwarders and will ultimately make world trade smoother.”
