Etihad Cargo to launch new service to Madrid
Etihad Cargo is set to expand its freighter network with a new route to Madrid commencing on July 15, 2024. It will operate twice a week on a 777 freighter aircraft. ""Launching Madrid as Etihad Cargo’s latest European freighter destination supports the growing demand for e-commerce flows between Asia and Europe,” said Stanislas Brun, vice president cargo at Etihad Cargo. ""Madrid's role as a key fashion hub makes it an essential destination for the carrier’s freighter network."" The introduction of the twice-weekly freighter service from Abu Dhabi will increase its total flights to Spain to 25 per week. This new route complements Etihad Cargo's existing European freighter network, which includes six weekly flights to Amsterdam and three weekly flights to Frankfurt. With the addition of Madrid to the network, the total number of Etihad Cargo's freighter flights to Europe will increase to 11 per week.
