Global GSA Group’s Spanish subsidiary, Mondial Airline Services Spain, has been appointed as general sales and service agent (GSSA) for China Southern Airlines Cargo in Spain. The company secured the tender and coordinated the successful launch of China Southern’s new direct freighter connection between Madrid and Guangzhou, which began operations on 02DEC25. The service uses a Boeing 787‑9 aircraft offering 15 tons and 80 m³ of cargo capacity per flight and operates three times weekly – on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Each flight carries a mix of general cargo and temperature‑sensitive goods, supporting regular exports such as pharmaceuticals and seafood.
Mondial Airline Services Spain now manages all sales, customer relations, and operational support for China Southern Airlines Cargo in the Spanish market, acting as a seamless extension of the airline’s global network. The new Madrid–Guangzhou link not only provides a direct connection between the Spanish and Chinese markets but also enables onward access across China, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand through China Southern’s hub at Guangzhou Baiyun Airport. This partnership reinforces Global GSA Group’s role in bridging major global trade markets and strengthens China Southern Airlines Cargo’s footprint within Southern Europe.
Aytekin Saray, Chief Executive Officer of Global GSA Group, said: “Global GSA Group already enjoys a long and rewarding partnership with China Southern Airlines Cargo in a number of European countries and is grateful to the airline for continuing to place its trust in our services. We are delighted to represent China Southern Airlines Cargo now also in Spain, and will ensure that this new routing very quickly becomes profitable through our access to state-of-the-art digital solutions offering real-time market intelligence, Mondial’s substantial local knowledge and its close collaboration with Spain’s freight forwarding community. Mondial Airline Services Spain is committed to supporting China Southern’s expansion into Spain and its team plays a critical role in aligning the airline’s global strategy with local market realities to ensure long-term route performance.”
