Japan's JAL and Poland's LOT establish new air freight partnership
POLAND'S LOT Cargo and JAL Cargo have signed a new co-operation agreement which starts in January and will see JAL Cargo selling cargo space on LOT's Dreamliners operating between Warsaw and Tokyo.
LOT's service on the route flies three times a week with as much as 65 cubic metres of cargo space and 15 tonnes of payload available on each flight, the London's Air Cargo News reported.
On the other hand, JAL Cargo will handle the cargo carried on LOT's planes once it reaches Tokyo's Narita airport.
The two airlines said they hoped to expand the agreement and offer cargo space on other routes they serve.
Said LOT cargo director Mariusz Kuczek: "Japan's exports to Poland equal EUR1.1 billion (US$1.2 billion), while imports exceed EUR1.5 billion per year. By commencing cooperation with JAL Cargo, we expect that the supply chains optimise opportunities."
Said JAL executive officer Tsuyoshi Yamamura added: "As JAL does not have its own network from Japan to Poland nor central and eastern Europe, it is also our pleasure that we can offer LOT's high quality non-stop service from Narita to Warsaw, along with LOT's massive network to central and eastern Europe."
