Emirates SkyCargo introduces A380 'mini-freighter' charter operations

Emirates SkyCargo announced (11-Nov-2020) it started utilising A380 aircraft on select cargo charter operations to transport urgently required cargo. The first dedicated Emirates Airline A380 'mini-freighter' successfully transported medical supplies between Seoul and Amsterdam via Dubai. Emirates SkyCargo worked with the Emirates' engineering and flight operations to optimise the cargo capacity of the A380 to transport around 50 tonnes of bellyhold cargo per flight. Emirates SkyCargo is working on further optimising the capacity of its A380 aircraft through measures such as seat loading of cargo and has planned more dedicated cargo flights on aircraft for Nov-2020.
