WFS, Emirates SkyCargo unite to enhance global cargo ops

Worldwide Flight Services (WFS) has signed a multi-year contract with Emirates SkyCargo to provide cargo handling services at Miami International Airport (MIA) for global operations. The three-year contract, which also includes ramp and mail services, is effective 14 July. WFS will handle Emirates’ freighter operations at MIA. The Dubai-based airline operates Boeing 777 and 747 freighter aircraft to service the Miami route from its cargo handling facility at Building 702. The partnership extends Emirates SkyCargo’s existing relationship with WFS across North America, where the cargo handling service provider already supports the carrier’s operations at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).
