Russia AirBridgeCargo flies 27pc more tonnage in 2015, FTK's up 25pc

RUSSIA's AirBridgeCargo continues strong 2015 growth with 27 per cent year-on-year tonnage gain in November, reports the Aviation Tribune, of Benalmadena Malaga, Spain, 100 kilometres east of Gibraltar.

Latest November figures show that ABC flew more than 50,000 tonnes across its global network serving Europe, North America and Asia Pacific with overall results for the first 11 months of 2015 being 20 per cent up year on year amounting to 439,000 tonnes. 



The airline's FTK performance continues to be one of the highest in the airline cargo industry, supporting its reputation as one of the fastest developing air cargo carriers in the world - in 2015 in average ABC's FTK's rose by 25 per cent. 



In 2015, ABC has continued following its growth strategy, based on a combination of operating a highly efficient fleet, network expansion to the points of production and consumption, and developing niche destinations.



These niche destinations have limited belly capacity but stable cargo flows, leaving ABC to deliver a "high level of service quality from skilled air cargo professionals". 



Said ABC president Denis Ilin: "This year we have successfully leveraged our internal strengths and external opportunities and this continues to boost our optimistic outlook to the year-end."



This year has seen ABC continuing to invest in its fleet by taking delivery of two new Boeing 747-8 Freighters. The delivery in November was the first to be completed under the Memorandum signed with Boeing during the Paris Air Show at Le Bourget in June.
