Cargobooking to roll out in Europe
Awery Aviation Software is rolling out its open-access Cargobooking platform in Europe, building on the success of its South African launch, which saw over 100 forwarders and 15 airlines join the marketplace within five weeks.
Cargobooking is an online booking marketplace that allows airlines and their general sales agents (GSAs) to provide freight forwarders with real-time air cargo rate distribution, quotes, and bookings. Airlines and GSAs can connect with forwarders on Cargobooking without the need for forwarder registration or transactional fees for any parties.
“Up to 20% of South Africa’s air cargo capacity is now supported on Cargobooking, a figure that continues to rise as new users join,” Vitaly Smilianets, CEO, Awery, told delegates at Air Cargo Handling & Logistics (ACHL) in Athens last week. (cj)
