Freightos, the leading digital freight booking and payment platform for the international freight industry, today announced that China Airlines (CAL, 2610.TW), a top-15 air cargo carrier, will be launching on Freightos’ WebCargo and 7LFreight platforms.
As a result, thousands of freight forwarders will have instant access to China Airlines’ rates, capacity, and eBookings across a network of 85 aircraft serving 192 destinations in 29 countries.
Forwarders can now digitally search, quote and book shipments with China Airlines — directly through WebCargo’s booking platform, with live integration to the leading rate management and quoting platform. Freight forwarders can even book directly from their transportation management systems (TMS) where these are integrated with WebCargo.
The initial rollout will span major hubs across the United States, Canada, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, and Japan, along with 14 destinations throughout Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia including Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Singapore, Thailand, and Indonesia. In future phases, WebCargo Pay instant payment will be available for China Airlines bookings, enabling forwarders to manage bookings and payments in one streamlined workflow. This integration will include general cargo, express rates and contract rates, said a release.
