China Airlines President Chen Han-ming stated on September 16 in Amsterdam that the carrier has achieved strong cargo performance this year by effectively matching market demand with its fleet capacity. Speaking at an event marking the airline's 15th anniversary of joining the SkyTeam alliance, Chen outlined operational goals for the fourth quarter, targeting maintaining monthly cargo revenue at NT$80 billion.
Liu An-chi, general manager of China Airlines' cargo department in Amsterdam, noted that the fourth quarter represents the peak season for air freight. Taiwan-originating shipments account for approximately 30 percent of the volume, while 60 to 70 percent consists of transshipment cargo collected across Asia and transferred through Taiwan to European and North American destinations.
