Antonov Airlines delivers automotive parts from Asia to the USA under open skies agreement

The AN-124-100 picked up 40 tonnes of parts in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, and a further 40 tonnes in Hanoi, Vietnam.

“We have seen an increase in demand for automotive cargo, and a double pick-up is not usual in the day-to-day operations of the AN-124-100,” said Iryna Kyianytsia, Commercial Executive at Antonov Airlines.

“There were additional challenges ensuring compliance with Covid-19 restrictions in different nations, but thanks to well-organised work and communication with The Flight Lab Aviation Consulting LLC, which chartered the flights, the cargo was safely and successfully transported in full and on time.”

“These flights were not your run-of-the-mill charters,” said Adam Green, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at The Flight Lab Aviation Consulting LLC.

“Due to the nature of the cargo and the double pick-up in two different countries, the planning had to be precise and executed perfectly.

“All the cargo was Just-In-Time, to support a large automotive manufacturer; with the help of the consignee V. Alexander in the USA, each flight went off without a hitch.”
