Etihad Cargo, the cargo division of Etihad Airways, the national airline of the UAE, has been recognised as ‘Cargo Airline of the Year’ by leading industry magazine, Air Cargo Week, at a prestigious gala dinner awards ceremony in Munich recently.


Held alternately at Air Cargo Europe in Munich or Air Cargo China in Shanghai, the ‘Air Cargo Week Awards’ are presented in nine categories ranging from ‘Airfreight Forwarder of the Year’ to ‘Cargo Airline of the Year,’ said a statement.

Voted for by the industry, the awards were presented during this year’s Air Cargo Europe, an exhibition organised by Air Cargo Week’s owner - Azura International – and the conference venue operator - Messe Muenchen.


David Kerr, vice president of Etihad Cargo, said: “This is another award that reflects the hard work of the team at Etihad Cargo, who operate in different countries across our growing network.

“As with our passenger airline services, we are recreating the airline’s vision of being the best in our field of business, going above and beyond, to ensure our customer’s needs are met. We’re delighted to accept the award and it’s a mark of our continued success as the cargo division of Etihad Airways.” - TradeArabia News Service
