Air Canada’s freighters will compete with European and Asian carriers
Berry took charge on January 1 as the vice president of cargo at Canada’s flag carrier and the mandate was crystal clear to him - “Continue to do all you can to keep as many airplanes flying as possible.” He explained, “Really that means looking at opportunities to fly cargo-only airplanes any place there is demand. Make sure that we are using our fleet as efficiently as possible capturing on the opportunity of lack of capacity across the market.”

With more than $900 million in revenue from cargo last year, 2021 is beginning to be a busy year for Air Canada Cargo. In the second quarter this year, it will launch a branded e-commerce programme in partnership with Canadian retailers to deliver products directly to their home using the belly capacity from its extensive domestic passenger network.
