Emirates, one of the biggest Middle Eastern airlines, has announced that it is expanding its strategic cooperation with South Africa’s flag carrier South African Airways (SAA).

Pending governmental approval, SAA and Emirates have signed an enhanced commercial partnership which will see the relationship between the two carriers strengthen their codeshare agreement signed in 1997, across a wide spectrum of commercial and customer touch points.

The two airlines will work towards bringing more synergies in their respective route network, customer touch points, cargo services and flight schedules to enable seamless connectivity and enhance passenger flows. Connectivity will be improved by adjusting connecting times through Johannesburg, with a special focus on popular regional markets.

Also, the two airlines plan to enhance the frequent flyer programmes, Emirates’ Skywards and Voyager by SAA. Emirates became a Voyager airline partner in 2000, which means Voyager members are able to earn and redeem Miles on flights operated by Emirates; and similarly, Skywards members are able to earn and redeem Miles on SAA-operated flights.

In 2017-18, the codeshare agreement between Emirates and SAA saw approximately 90,000 passengers benefit from seamless travel and greater connectivity, in this year alone. Emirates launched operations to South Africa in 1995 with flights between Dubai and Johannesburg.

In FY 2017-18, Emirates carried over 1.7 million passengers to and from its three points in South Africa, and over 61,800 tonnes of high value cargo – including seafood, fruits and vegetables, fresh and frozen meats, wine, pharmaceuticals and gold.

Emirates SkyCargo carried close to 10,000 tonnes of Irish exports, from Dublin, during 2018.

The Dubai-based carrier offers up to 25 tonnes of cargo capacity on each of its Boeing 777 passenger aircraft that operate the Dublin route.

Around 35% of Emirates SkyCargo’s Irish export cargo for 2018 comprised food items such as crabs, oysters, razor shells and salmon, much of which is heading to the Far East and specifically, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Singapore.

Other produce making its way to the supermarkets of Dubai and onwards to Asia include yogurts, cheese, Irish beef, chocolates and baby milk formula.

Pharmaceuticals accounted for more than 2,000 tonnes of cargo carried by Emirates SkyCargo from Dublin in 2018. Primary end markets for products from leading pharmaceutical companies in Ireland include Australia, India and the Middle East.

Other Irish products being exported to markets such as the UAE, China, Singapore, Australia and South Africa, and making up 35% of exports, include computer equipment, electronics and machinery. 

Large Computer servers (supporting Cloud Technology) manufactured in Ireland are exported worldwide using Emirates’ wide-body aircraft services to Australia, New Zealand and the Middle East.  

Michael Meagher, Emirates SkyCargo manager for Ireland, said: “Since launching in Ireland in January 2012 Emirates has been supporting Irish companies of all sizes with their export programmes, carrying more than 50,000 tonnes of cargo out of Dublin during that time, making us the number one carrier for air cargo from Ireland to the Middle East, Australia and China.

“We are continuing to grow our operation in Ireland and are currently developing Dublin as a gate-way to North America for cargo traffic coming from Dubai and elsewhere on our network. This is a very exciting development for the Emirate SkyCargo team in Dublin, where every piece of cargo is treated with kid gloves to ensure it arrives at its destination in perfect condition.”

Emirates SkyCargo is the freight division of Emirates offering cargo capacity on its fleet of over 270 aircraft which also includes 13 B777-Fs and one B747-F.

European all-cargo airline Cargolux has launched a new transpacific service between Hong Kong (HKG) and Mexico City (MEX).

The connection will be operated twice weekly with flights leaving from Hong Kong on Saturdays and Mondays to arrive in the Mexican capital on Sundays and Tuesdays. The Monday flight will also include a stopover in Guadalajara (GDL), the country’s second most populous municipality.

The frequency was introduced on December 10 with 120 tonnes of cargo on board destined for both Guadalajara and Mexico City. This inaugural flight bodes well for the connection that carries a number of different commodities such as garments, mobile phones and related accessories, as well as electronic appliances.

For Kevin Shek, Cargolux’s vice president - Asia and Pacific, this new frequency is a great development for the region: “We are delighted to have added another transpacific connection out of Hong Kong. Mexico is a rapidly growing economy and serving it directly from East Asia will enable for faster and more efficient exchanges of goods”.

This new service complements a growing list of transpacific flights originating from Hong Kong. Cargolux already offers westbound flights to six other North American destinations; Chicago, Dallas, Los Angeles, Miami, New York and Rickenbacker.
