Boeing 767s are coveted by all-cargo carriers. LATAM Airlines is doing an in-house swap of passenger planes to its cargo division, which will send them to Boeing to convert into freighters.
The Airbus A321 is a ubiquitous people-hauler, but now Australia Post has the first freighter version of this popular aircraft.
When some passenger planes get long in the tooth, they get a second life in cargo. The latest candidate for conversion in the Airbus A321. It offers more shipping space than a Boeing 737 and could be flying to an airport near you soon with your online order.
ATRAN Airlines says increased online shopping has increased express air cargo traffic between Moscow and China’s northern cities.
The global air cargo carrier has tasked Israel Aerospace Industries with converting the planes to all-cargo configuration.
