CMA CGM Air Cargo is the cargo airline division of the CMA CGM shipping group. It operates primarily out of Charles-de-Gaulle Airport in Paris, France.
History
The company was founded in 2021 and launched operations with four Airbus A330-200Fs, initially operated by Air Belgium, based in Liège.[2] These aircraft have been progressively re-registered in France and based at Charles-de-Gaulle airport in Paris together with two Boeing 777Fs delivered in June 2022.[3] The company is also implementing a major expansion plan to double its fleet, both in terms of numbers and capacity. Specifically, in November 2021 and June 2022, CMA CGM Air Cargo ordered four Airbus A350Fs[4] and two additional Boeing 777Fs[5] respectively.
In May 2022, CMA CGM, the airline's parent company signed a strategic partnership with Air France–KLM to develop their air cargo capacities together. However, this partnership, implemented in April 2023,[6] has been terminated by mutual agreement in January 2024 without change in the 9% stake acquired by CMA CGM in the Franco-Dutch airline group.[7][8]
In March 2024, the company announced new services between the US and Asia starting in the summer of 2024 while in April, the trade press mentioned a partnership with US air cargo carrier Atlas Air to implement the new operations.[9]
