A first for Korean Air Cargo
Korean Air has connected its cargo booking system with DHL Global Forwarding, which is the first time the airline has linked its booking system directly to a freight forwarder. The integration allows DHL Global Forwarding to book cargo on Korean Air flights directly from its system.
The API (application programming interface) software enables customers to make reservations directly from their own system, bypassing the need to use the airline’s platform. This makes workflows more efficient by ensuring a real-time data exchange between airlines and customers, which gives them easier access to flight schedules and air cargo rates.
"We are excited to announce our direct booking connection with our long-lasting partner Korean Air Cargo through Cargowise.” said Max Sauberschwarz, global head of airfreight at DHL Global Forwarding. (cj)
