Delta Cargo has expanded its offering on online booking platform WebCargo by Freightos to include more destinations and products.
The airline added its general cargo product and tariff fares to the platform in 2020, but this has now been extended to include the carrier’s global network out of the US as well as its DASH Heavy for urgent individual shipments for the US domestic market and general freight and express heavy products for US exports.
WebCargo said that its users would now have access to more than 250 destinations served by Delta.
Meanwhile, Delta Cargo is also putting its capacity on Freightos’ US truck portal 7LFreight so customers can book less-than-truckload services and also flights.
Freightos chief executive Zvi Schreiber said: “The combination of global and domestic air cargo, particularly in the US, is a game-changer for more efficient global trade.
“7LFreight by Freightos already offers digital booking of domestic US LTL trucking, and today we’re excited to offer instant transparent booking of air cargo from the US across Delta Air Lines’ global network.”
Brennan O’Dowd, chief executive of 7LFreight by Freightos, added: “Our client base consists largely of US-based freight forwarders. Not only does Delta Cargo’s presence on 7LFreight allow it to reach our extensive user base directly, it also greatly simplifies the booking process for 7LFreight users.”
Freightos said that the number of bookings registered by Delta Cargo via WebCargo has recently increased by three times year on year.
