Alitalia makes another record; moves 53 tonnes of cargo from Mumbai to Rome in a day’s time

Alitalia Airlines, who have been operating their weekly P2C flights from India since June 2020, have reached a milestone figure of successfully uplifting 53,375 kgs on a single flight from Mumbai (BOM) – Rome (FCO). An optimum mix of high density cargo along with pharmaceuticals, auto parts, spares, chemicals, garments & courier helped achieve the desired result. The ULD planning was carefully monitored for maximum utilisation of space on the newly cargo only reconfigured aircraft.

Commenting on the achievement, Sakshi Gupta, Country Manager – India, Air Logistics Group, says “Alitalia enters the book of records once again with a consecutive birdie in a row, uplifting yet another milestone figure of 53 tonnes on its BOM-FCO route which comes just a day after the successful flight ex DEL which ferried 54T to Rome.”

Deepak Kumar, Cargo Manager – Western India, Air Logistics Group, states, “Air cargo is a constitutive part of logistics business. We could only attain this crest through arduous dedication and commitment towards the air cargo industry. This would have not been possible without our stake holders who have underpinned and braced us through thick and thin.”

Alitalia has been expanding its Cargo capacity to transport vital supplies across the globe & looks forward to increasing the import & export trade between Italy & India in times ahead.
