Welcome to SIA Cargo - News & Highlights

Singapore Airlines Cargo, the fully owned subsidiary of Singapore Airlines, has been awarded Cargo 2000 phase one accreditation on routes between Singapore and Hong Kong, London, Los Angeles, Melbourne and Tokyo. The next objective is for the airline to achieve phase one accreditation across the Cargo 2000 network plan. SIA Cargo joined Cargo 2000 in May 2004.

Cargo 2000 is a quality management system adopted by many of the world's leading airlines and freight forwarders. Customers who use Cargo 2000 forwarders can now be assured that shipments carried by Singapore Airlines Cargo will be handled and tracked within very strict timelines from the moment they are accepted at origin airport to delivery at destination airport. The intended improvement in timelines aims to ensure further improvements in customer satisfaction levels with the airline.

"Cargo 2000 provides a common platform of service quality and standards between airline and forwarder. The common platform is vital in driving efficiencies and improvements for all participants in the supply chain and I'm delighted that SIA Cargo has been awarded its Certificate of Approval." said Mr Hwang Teng Aun, President of Singapore Airlines Cargo.

Singapore Airlines Cargo currently operates on a global network that extends to 70 cities in 36 countries. In addition to the fourteen "Mega Ark" Boeing 747-400 Freighters currently in service, two further aircraft of this type are due for delivery by the end of 2005 and deliveries of three Boeing 747-400 passenger to freighter conversions will take place between 2007 and 2009. SIA Cargo markets the entire cargo capacity of the SIA passenger aircraft fleet on its worldwide network. SIA Cargo is a member of the WOW alliance.
