05/10/2026 Marseille, FRA The CMA CGM Group continues on its path of growth and innovation with an unwavering ambition:
to connect the world through ever more efficient solutions at sea, on land, in the air, and at the heart of the most demanding supply chains.

Launched in 2021, CMA CGM AIR CARGO fully embodies this dynamic in air freight.

With three B777s and one A330 operated under a French AOC, we deploy integrated, agile, high value-added solutions to support our customers worldwide.

The acquisition of Air Belgium, operating two B747s, combined with the operation of two of our B777s alongside our American partner, marks a decisive milestone:
strengthened long-haul capacity and expanded global connectivity.

By 2027, the arrival of eight A350Fs will position CMA CGM AIR CARGO as the launch operator of this new Airbus aircraft.

A new benchmark in performance, fuel efficiency, and environmental commitment, representing a major step forward in our ambition to build more responsible air operations.

But our true differentiator goes far beyond operational performance and strategic investments.

At Air Cargo, we carry more than goods:
we move your projects, your ambitions, and your successes, within an environment built on equality, respect, and inclusion.

This vision inspires every action we take and gives full momentum to our development.
