WestJet Cargo extends Jettainer contract

WestJet Cargo extends Jettainer contract

Jettainer remains the ULD partner of choice for WestJet Cargo in the coming years. The Canadian airline has extended the contract for the second time and is thus relying on both the continued support and innovative services of Jettainer when it comes to ULD management. Since 2015, Jettainer has been managing and maintaining a fleet of containers and pallets tailored to the airline’s needs.

The current ULD fleet consists mainly of light AKE units for the transportation of luggage and cargo in passenger aircraft. Operating a fleet of nearly 200 aircraft, WestJet connects globally to over 100 destinations across North America, Central America and the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia. With advanced IT and tracking solutions, Jettainer’s experts always steer the units on the most efficient path through this network, keeping a proactive eye on demand, movements and inventory to ensure 100% availability at all times.

“The contract extension with WestJet Cargo is a great recognition. Our dedicated teams are committed to providing our customers with the best possible and most efficient ULD support on a daily basis. At the same time, innovative and digital solutions that provide more transparency along the ULD supply chain and thus enable further improvements are what we are constantly striving for with our customers,” says Jettainer’s CEO Dr. Jan-Wilhelm Breithaupt.
