Cargojet announced it has entered into a three-year agreement with China-based Great Vision HK Express to provide scheduled charter services—from Hangzhou, China to Vancouver, B.C., and from Vancouver, B.C. to Hangzhou, China.
Serving the rapidly expanding Chinese e-Commerce sector, Cargojet will operate a minimum of three flights per week and began service on May 22, 2024, with eight flights successfully completed to date. Total revenue for this program is estimated at over $160 million for the full term of the agreement.
“Leveraging Cargojet’s industry-leading record of on-time performance and reliability, together with the connection opportunities from Vancouver to fifteen other cities in Canada, will allow Great Vision HK to provide enhanced services for China-based e-Commerce service providers, to their customers across Canada,” said Jamie B. Porteous, co-chief executive officer.
