Friday, July 12, 2024 Swiss WorldCargo offers 28 weekly flights to the Italian city, utilizing narrowbody Airbus A320/321 and Embraer aircraft. WFS, part of the SATS Group, anticipates managing 2,000 tonnes of cargo annually at Milan Malpensa for SWISS’s airfreight division. Additionally, Swiss WorldCargo customers will continue to benefit from road feeder services connecting Milan and Zurich six days a week.
Swiss WorldCargo has been a longstanding customer of WFS across its global network. Currently, WFS provides cargo handling services for SWISS’s airfreight division at major airport stations in North and South America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific region. The decision to appoint WFS as the air cargo ground handling partner in Milan Malpensa was driven by WFS’s modern cargo handling facilities, extensive operations, and capability to offer dedicated solutions for Swiss WorldCargo’s specialized high-value, care-intensive, and temperature-sensitive shipments.
“We’re glad to extend our already solid collaboration with WFS to another key station of our cargo operations, Milan Malpensa. With a significant number of weekly flights and tonnes of cargo transported between Milan and Zurich, we need an air cargo ground handling partner that knows our business well and can operate to the high-quality standards that we provide our customers globally. WFS can do that,” says Christian Wyss, Head of Cargo Offering Development & Steering at Swiss International Air Lines.
