Emirates

Emirates SkyCargo is going back to the future by deploying Boeing 747-400 freighters for the first time in more than five years.

Boeing and Airbus on Tuesday signed deals to bring more large freighter jets to the market.

Emirates is enlarging and modernizing its cargo fleet with modified passenger aircraft and new builds.

Cargo airlines and leasing companies are sucking up small and midsize freighters converted from passenger configuration. Here come the big boys.

Overhead bins, seat bags and seat removal are among the innovations airlines started during the COVID pandemic to move more cargo while few passengers are traveling.

The A380 has mostly been a bust as a giant passenger plane. Now Airbus is trying to salvage some value by offering to convert passenger planes into full-time cargo planes. But there’s a twist. Passengers will still ride along on the top deck. Will airlines buy in?

Ghost flights — passenger aircraft with no passengers, only cargo — were never a thing before the coronavirus pandemic. In the past year, airlines have operated thousands of passenger aircraft as mini-freighters. Who are the industry leaders?

The United Arab Emirates has its first doses of Pfizer coronavirus vaccine thanks to a free delivery from national airline Emirates.

The A380 isn’t prized for its cargo capability, but when operated in “ghost” mode there’s a lot more room for stuff.

Companies that need to move goods by air will need to increase their transportation budgets to get through the fourth quarter as low capacity ignites airfreight prices.

Some people call it the Flying Forehead. The A380 is a double-deck plane that airlines quickly parked when the coronavirus destroyed travel demand. Now, Emirates is starting to fly a few of the mammoth planes.

Emirates says it will deploy dozens of all-cargo planes to Lebanon with humanitarian aid in response to the port explosion in Beirut.

Shippers are facing delays at Sydney Airport in Australia because cargo terminals are buried in cargo.

The FAA’s ruling allowing airlines to jam more cargo in the cabin by removing passenger seats may be a pyrrhic victory. The incentive to do so may have passed.

June is supposed to be the heavy travel season, but instead of operating full planes, airlines are busy trying to save their financial lives.

Emirates, a dominant carrier in international long-distance travel, is grounding almost its entire fleet in a concession to the lack of business because of the coronavirus.

Airfreight demand from China is still lower than normal this time of year, but it is finally picking up as the coronavirus scare gradually subsides. The new dynamic is reflected in higher cargo rates.
