dnata, global air and travel services provider, and Qatar Airways Cargo, air cargo carrier, have extended their partnership in Belgium.
The multi-year extension of the contract will see dnata continue to deliver a range of cargo handling and road feeder services for the airline from its state-of-the-art facility at Brussels Airport (BRU).
Qatar Airways Cargo currently operates a mix of 15 freighter and passenger flights each week to and from the Belgian capital. In 2021, dnata handled 25% more cargo for the airline at BRU than in the previous year.
Stef Vanbinst, Managing Director of dnata Belgium, said: “We are proud to have earned the trust and loyalty of Qatar Airways Cargo with our reliable and safe services.
“We continue to invest in our operations to consistently provide world-class quality to the airline and its customers.”
dnata entered the Belgian cargo market in 2019, substantially increasing cargo capacity in the Benelux states.
Since then, it has more than doubled the size of its advanced cargo centre which now covers an area of 7,000 m². dnata has also been operating the Animal Care & Inspection Centre offering a top-notch, 2,000 m² facility for the handling of live animals at BRU.
