The Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA) has announced that Korean Air Cargo, one the largest cargo airlines in the world, will be increasing its freighter service at Toronto Pearson.
Beginning in early September, the airline will be adding a third weekly B747-400F flight, bringing their frequency up to a Wednesday, Friday, Saturday service. The B747-400 aircraft is one of the most fuel efficient and quietest in its class.
"We are very happy to see this increase in service from Korean Air Cargo," said Lloyd McCoomb, president and CEO of the GTAA.
He added: "This increased cargo offering is very good for the whole community we serve. It means that companies moving cargo to and from the Asian market now have more options and greater flexibility. The new freighter service also consolidates our role within the Asia-Pacific Corridor."
