International Airlines Group (IAG) Cargo has announced the launch of two new routes. It will operate a new route to Aruba (Oranjestad) via Antigua on March 26 and to Guyana (Georgetown) via Saint Lucia on March 27.
Both services will operate twice a week on a British Airways Boeing 777-200 widebody aircraft. Among the exports that this capacity will serve are perishables, local produce, and oil equipment.
"We are thrilled to be able to provide additional capacity to the Americas, allowing our customers to reach more destinations via our key hubs. The movement of cargo between Europe and Americas represents an important trade route, and with our specialist products such as Critical and Constant Climate we’re able to offer a speedy service and ensure that goods stay in perfect condition every step of the journey,” Rodrigo Casal, Regional Commercial Manager for Latin America at IAG Cargo, said.
IAG Cargo continues to expand its Americas capacity with more than 250 weekly services between European and Latin American airports. As of the 26th of March, IAG Cargo will offer a direct three-times-weekly service between London and Trinidad, previously accessible via St. Lucia.
