Cargolux adds Quito to network to fly flowers to Amsterdam, Luxembourg
CARGOLUX has started offering scheduled all-cargo services from Ecuador's capital Quito, to transport the South American country's flower exports to Amsterdam and Luxembourg.
All four weekly Cargolux flights, originating at the European freighter carrier's Luxembourg hub, will operate through Curitiba (Brazil), Viracopos (Brazil) and Mexico before arriving in Quito, reported London's Air Cargo News.
A spokesperson for the airline was quoted as saying: "Cargolux's direct flights from South and Central America to Amsterdam were introduced in 2016 and serve the perishable and flower markets, offering customers reduced transit times and a faster delivery that better fits their schedules.
"Growing the presence in the Netherlands also enabled Cargolux to operate more flexibly in the Dutch export markets for products that are difficult to transport by road."
Ecuador was originally introduced into the Cargolux network in late 2000 and received strong support from the freight forwarding community.
Since then, Cargolux has offered 17 years of uninterrupted air cargo flights from Ecuador, and currently operates four weekly flights that mainly support the markets in Amsterdam and the rest of Europe, as well as China and Central Asia.
