   The carrier will now operate a new, 12,000-square-foot facility. This is the second expansion of American’s Atlanta cargo operations since 2013.
   “The move to this new location within the airport’s north cargo facility will help reduce loading and unloading processing times for customers,” AA Cargo said in a statement. Swissport Cargo Services is the airline’s cargo handler in Atlanta.
   Cargo service at Atlanta includes American’s Priority Parcel Service (PPS), ConfirmedFS and ExpediteFS. These services also offer a variety of trucking options to American’s U.S. hubs, such as Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago, Charlotte, Philadelphia and Miami, as well as Raleigh. “Each of these locations offer customers more connecting opportunities to international destinations throughout Asia, Europe and Latin America,” AA Cargo said.
