ECS Group subsidiary, Globe Air Cargo (GAC), has been selected as the GGSA to represent Air Arabia in Poland. The initial three-year contract was recently signed and became effective on 15OCT24. GAC will support Air Arabia in developing its air cargo business in the region. The airline currently serves Krakow out of the UAE, four times per week. This is soon due to rise to five weekly rotations, still during the winter schedule, and from this month onwards, Air Arabia will also serve Warsaw with five flights per week. The carrier deploys A320 and A321 variants on these routes, opening the cargo market up to a variety of commodities. The main commodities being carried include general cargo and passive temperature-sensitive shipments such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and foodstuffs.
As its website states, “Air Arabia’s vision is to be the leading cargo trend setter in Air Cargo Industry.” It offers a cargo network numbering over 50 destinations, and “is in a state of continuous growth”, which its record revenues thus far in 2024 (passenger and cargo), reflect.
According to the press release, the new partnership benefits both the airline and the GSSA, creating opportunities for growth in a growing Polish logistics market.
Robert Van de Weg, Chief Commercial Officer of ECS Group, commented: “We are proud to represent Air Arabia in Poland. This collaboration not only enhances our service offerings but also reinforces our commitment to providing efficient and reliable logistics solutions. We look forward to working closely with Air Arabia to maximize their potential in the Polish market.”
