Brussels Airlines wants to boost cargo traffic

The revision of the GSSA contract was part of the airline’s strategy to reap more rewards from positive trends in cargo activity, says Saeys-Desmedt. “What Air Logistics Group (ALG) proposed to us was a bit more ‘scientific’. Their commercial approach will be totally different from that of our previous partner (ECS), with whom we successfully developed our cargo strategy. Now, however, it is time for the next step in our development. ALG is going to allocate more manpower to us and our objective is to develop new cargo activities. We are convinced that the new contract is more responsive to what we need.”
