Increasing capacity by 50%, the agreement will broaden Flexport’s network from Asia to Los Angeles, Miami and soon, Chicago O’Hare.

Our team is pleased to deliver even more value to Flexport and its customers through the world-class service they can depend on from Atlas Air.”
Neel Jones Shah, Executive Vice President and Global Head of Airfreight at Flexport says: “This strategic agreement will strengthen Flexport’s dedicated capacity network and provide global shippers with additional origins and destinations throughout Asia and the United States, ultimately enabling them to build more flexible and resilient supply chains.”
