Freightos’ WebCargo has gained a new partner in Thai Airways and, with Thailand’s national carrier, strengthens its foothold in Asia. Over the next few months, Thai Airways will integrate its cargo capacities into WebCargo’s platform. Forwarders using WebCargo will then be able to book real-time capacities against current rates, and also carry out payment in real-time, using the system’s WebCargo Pay solution for seamless transactions. The roll-out will commence with selected freight forwarders in Australia, Japan, Thailand, and the United Kingdom. Thai Airways, with its hub in Bangkok, offers a large route network as well as quality customer service and operations.
Manuel Galindo, Chief Revenue Officer of Freightos, said: “By helping forwarders of different sizes easily book and pay for Thai Airways capacity on WebCargo’s platform, we are not only expanding digital access to one of Asia’s largest air cargo networks but also continuing our mission to help evolve how cargo bookings and payments are handled. With WebCargo eBooking and Pay, Thai Airways will be able to expand their audience and provide their customers with smooth access to flexible credit and payment options, and to complete their bookings in seconds.”
Chirachet Chanawiset, Head of Cargo & Mail Commercial, Thai Airways Cargo, proclaimed: “Thai Airways aims for service of excellence to provide secure and environmentally responsible air transport solutions. Our collaboration with WebCargo by Freightos is a key milestone in our digital transformation journey. With WebCargo Pay, we are excited to reach a broader audience and empower a wider array of freight forwarders to grow their businesses, easily and securely.”
