The corridor leverages American Airlines Cargo’s extensive daily transatlantic flight services connecting key European life sciences hubs (AMS + BRU) with major U.S. destinations via London Heathrow (LHR), one of AA Cargo’s largest international gateways. The solution is based on validated temperature-controlled trucking services operated in partnership with FlyUs Aviation Group (FlyUs) with American’s ExpediteTC℠ offering to ensure seamless, end-to-end cold chain protection. Designed specifically for pharmaceutical and healthcare shipments, the service supports defined temperature ranges of 2°C to 8°C and 15°C to 25°C in both directions, helping ensure product integrity throughout the ground portion of the journey between the Benelux states and the UK.
According to a release aired by AA Cargo, “the corridor brings together standardized processes across ground handling, transfer and air transport to ensure consistent temperature control and compliance throughout the journey.” By connecting leading European pharmaceutical gateways with the strength of American’s global network, it creates a reliable, scalable solution for moving temperature-sensitive healthcare shipments, reads the announcement.“The launch of this pharma corridor, [which officially took place on 01MAY26, but was announced only now, HS] represents a strategic step in strengthening our pharmaceutical and healthcare network across Europe and the United States,” said Eric Mathieu, Managing Director of Customer Experience at American Airlines Cargo. “Built on standardized, end-to-end processes and supported by validated ground solutions and our global air network, this initiative enables a consistent, reliable and fully compliant experience for customers moving temperature-sensitive shipments.”
