Cathay Cargo brings automation & shipment

Cathay Cargo has enhanced its integrated mail platform with Cathay Mail, a refined digital solution that re-envisages the mail shipment process, generating greater transparency for post offices and providing track-and-trace visibility their customers expect.

With Cathay Mail, Cathay Cargo will be able to provide a superior customer experience that better caters to the requirements of post offices for shipment visibility, reliability and speed.

Cathay Cargo’s refreshed “mail as cargo” solution integrates mail-handling data with air cargo systems using the PAWB – the postal air waybill. This use of electronic data interchange (EDI) technology removes much of the previous shipment paperwork and gives both origin and destination post offices,
and designated operators, more visibility of shipments down to mail bag (or “receptacle”) level, allowing them to offer package-level track-and-trace visibility to e-commerce shippers, said a release.
