China Southern Air Logistics will become the first Chinese carrier to offer China import bookings on the WebCargo platform.
WebCargo said that China Southern would gain access to the platform’s 3,500 freight forwarder users, while the forwarders would be able to see live rates and make bookings on services into China. Payments can also be made through the platform.
The platform added that carriers on WebCargo now account for over 50% of total air cargo capacity, while in the last quarter a record number of bookings – almost 200,000 – were made on the platform.
