Emirates SkyCargo is seeing good demand for the import and export of cargo into the Chinese market, despite the extended closure of factories due to the Coronavirus.
The air cargo carrier operates freighter services to Guangzhou and Shanghai, having resumed these scheduled services after a planned hiatus over the traditionally low-traffic New Year holidays period.
Many factories are now getting operations back underway while bellyhold cargo capacity is curtailed due to the cancellation of a raft of passenger services. This will likely result in a spike in demand for those airlines able to offer freighter capacity.
Commodities being currently transported on the freighter flights include perishable food items, pharma, medical supplies and other general cargo.
Emirates SkyCargo has also been continually operating freighter services to Hong Kong.
