The company says it is the only freight carrier to serve three international airports with scheduled flights within and out of Mexico.
As of Friday, Panalpina has added Querétaro International Airport in Mexico to the “speedy” loop of its charter network, which also connects Mexico City and Guadalajara with Panalpina’s air freight gateway in Huntsville, Ala.
Querétaro’s addition to the regular connections of the charter network means Panalpina is the only freight carrier to serve three international airports with scheduled flights within and out of Mexico, the company said.
Panalpina also is the first and only company to offer a transatlantic flight from Querétaro to London Stansted Airport in the UK and to Luxembourg via Huntsville.
Panalpina said the new Querétaro lane reflects itss growth in aerospace and the continuous adaptation of the company’s charter network to meet evolving market needs and customer demand in Mexico.
The decision to accelerate the integration of Querétaro into the Panalpina charter network was made at the 2017 Paris Airshow during meetings held with government and private stakeholders.
“Panalpina has been committed to Querétaro for over five years now. We have been working closely with Querétaro airport operatives and government authorities, strategic airline partner Atlas Air and Huntsville International Airport to build on the continued success of the network,” said Matthias Frey, global head of the Panalpina charter network.
One of the results of this combined effort is the inclusion of Querétaro in the 747-8 airport compatibility list as the increased wingspan of the 747-8 puts it into ICAO airport design category F.
