Worldwide Flight Services (WFS), a SATS company, signed a multi-year contract with Emirates SkyCargo, the cargo arm of the world’s largest international airline, to provide comprehensive cargo handling, ramp, and mail services at Miami International Airport (MIA) effective July 14, 2025.
The three-year contract will see WFS handle Emirates’ freighter operations at MIA. The airline operates Boeing 777 and 747 freighter aircraft to service the Miami route from its cargo handling facility at Building 702.
The partnership extends Emirates SkyCargo’s existing relationship with WFS across North America, where the cargo handling service provider already supports the carrier’s operations at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA), John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK), George Bush Intercontinental Airport (IAH), Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD), and Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).
This strategic win strengthens WFS’ long-standing partnership with Emirates SkyCargo, a collaboration built on a track record of proven service quality, competitive pricing, and strong existing relationships across their North American network. The selection ensures operational consistency and maintains the high service standards Emirates SkyCargo requires across its key cargo destinations.
“WFS is honored to expand our partnership with Emirates SkyCargo to include Miami, a strategic gateway connecting North America with Latin America and the Caribbean. This selection reinforces our commitment to delivering exceptional service quality and operational reliability that supports Emirates SkyCargo’s global cargo network,” said José Canales, SVP, Commercial & Business Development, Americas at WFS.
The addition of Miami to the WFS-Emirates SkyCargo partnership demonstrates both companies’ commitment to enhancing cargo connectivity and service excellence in the Americas region, strengthening Emirates SkyCargo’s logistics capabilities in this important market.
