Thai Airways has partnered with ECS Group's subsidiary, Aero Cargo Belgium, to connect cargo on essential routes between Europe and Asia.

The agreement, which took effect on February 1, focuses on the Brussels (BRU) to Bangkok (BKK) route, offering seamless transit options to destinations including Australia, Korea, India, Japan, Manila, and Singapore.

Thai Airways operates daily flights using Boeing 787-800 aircraft, each providing a payload capacity of 15 tons.

ECS Group noted that the airline will benefit not only from its in-house technology but also from the full deployment of the CargoTech suite of digital tools. 

It added that this collaboration caters to a diverse range of cargo, with a particular focus on pharmaceuticals, ensuring reliable and efficient transport solutions for time-sensitive and specialized shipments.

"ECS Group is proud to support this collaboration with Thai Airways, which reflects our commitment to building long-term, value-driven relationships with airlines. By enabling them to achieve operational excellence and deliver tailored solutions for their unique needs, we are setting a new standard for global connectivity and efficiency in the cargo industry," said Jean Ceccaldi, CEO of ECS Group.

Bert Moortgat, managing director of Aero Cargo Belgium, said this agreement is a "significant milestone" for Aero Cargo Belgium.

"With daily flights and access to a network of vital destinations in Asia-Pacific, we are able to offer our customers unparalleled opportunities to connect their goods to global markets efficiently and reliably, particularly for high-value and sensitive commodities such as pharmaceuticals," he added.

This partnership between Thai Airways and Aero Cargo Belgium will boost connectivity in Europe and Asia-Pacific with efficient and reliable cargo solutions.
