A.P. Moller - Maersk has announced the inaugural flight of Maersk Air Cargo's new air freight service with scheduled flights between Greenville-Spartanburg, South Carolina (GSP) and Incheon, Korea (ICN).
The scheduled transpacific operation will commence on October 31 with two weekly flights introducing the first of three newly built Boeing 767-300 freighters that have recently been purchased by Maersk Air Cargo.
Notably, all US - Korea flights will be operated by Miami-headquartered cargo airline Amerijet International.
Additionally, Maersk also recently opened a new Chicago Air Freight Gateway facility to add more supply chain integration opportunities for customers using Chicago O’Hare International and Rockford International.
Michel Pozas Lucic, Global Head of Air & LCL in A.P. Moller – Maersk, said, “Back in April, we announced the launch of Maersk Air Cargo as our integrated in-house air cargo carrier. With the introduction of this new service between the US and Korea, we have taken the next step in securing logistics solutions for our customers with our own aircrafts.”
Next to the new scheduled transpacific flights, Maersk also operates its own controlled capacity from Europe into the US, Mexico, South Africa, and Singapore, Lucic added.
