Apr 06, 2021 (newstodate): All-cargo flight operations continue to play a key role for Finnair Cargo during the Covid-19 pandemic, while passenger flight operations are still only slowly picking up.
The carrier performed its first all-cargo flight on March 28, 2020, with an Airbus A350-900 passenger aircraft between Helsinki and Seoul, while on March 28, 2021, the number of all-cargo flights rounded 1,800 operations.
Three Airbus A340-300 and two Airbus A350-900 passenger aircraft have had seats removed to offer capacity for cabin cargo as well as belly freight, and other all-cargo flights are performed with belly cargo-only on other Finnair aircraft.
In 2020, Finnair lifted a total of 71,733 tonnes, of which 26,036 tonnes were transported on all-cargo flights.
