First CES for air cargo


Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), a member of the Sats Group, has been awarded a five-year-contract from US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) to operate a new centralised examination station (CES) at New York’s John F. Kennedy airport (JFK).

 

CBP is of the world's largest law enforcement organisations and the USA’s first unified border entity, which takes a comprehensive approach to border management and control, combining customs, immigration, border security, and agricultural protection.

 

When the CES begins its phased opening in Q1/2025, it will become the first Air CES to contain all segments of CBP inspections as well as the first on-airport examination facility at JFK, processing import, export, and USDA (department of agriculture) goods. Currently, the nearest CES station to JFK is located at Newark airport. (cj)
