Cargolux adds new freighter service from Ireland to US

To connect with global customers, Cargolux has reportedly added a new service from the Republic of Ireland to the US. The flight will operate on a routing of Los Angeles, Seattle and Shannon once per week utilising one of the carrier’s B747 freighters, said carrier in a statement. The inaugural flight to Shannon landed on June 9. The introduction of Shannon is an opportunity for Cargolux to meet growing customer demand and expand its presence in the British Isles, the carrier further explained. “This new frequency is a welcome development for Cargolux to connect with its global customers and expand services in the area. Shannon is a thriving commercial gateway, and we look forward to building our partnerships in the region,” said Domenico Ceci, Cargolux’s Executive Vice President Sales & Marketing. “This regular service cements the airline’s commitment to business in the region,” the carrier added.
