Emirates SkyCargo expands in Argentina and Brazil
Emirates SkyCargo, the freight division of Emirates, has increased its South American operation to Rio de Janerio and Buenos Aires.
The linked service between Dubai and Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires will be operated by Boeing 777-300ER
Following the launch of a daily passenger service from Dubai to Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires on 3rd January, Emirates SkyCargo is now able to connect three points in South America with trade opportunities in more than 100 destinations.
In addition to the belly-hold capacity of the 14 passenger flights each week between Dubai and Rio de Janeiro-Buenos Aires, it also offers cargo space on the 14 passenger flights it operates each week between Dubai and South America's largest city Sao Paulo.
The capacity on these two routes - both served by Boeing 777-300ERs - is bolstered further by Emirates SkyCargo's dedicated freighter service to Sao Paolo three times a week, which provides a further 620 tonnes of capacity on Boeing 777Fs.
