The CPS platform is used by more than 33,000 freight forwarders, who gain access to airline capacity so they can price, book and track shipments.
The biggest benefits for users are increased visibility to maximise cargo utilisation and streamline access for freight forwarders, 24/7 access to capacity data and booking to eliminate manual bookings, and more route options with real-time access to flights.
Sean Tinney, Vice President of Enterprise Computing Solutions at Unisys, says, “The addition of Finnair Cargo to our platform demonstrates our commitment and drive to expanding digital accessibility in air cargo. This partnership gives freight forwarders more options for efficient cargo booking and management while extending Finnair Cargo's reach to new customers.”
Anna-Maria Kirchner, Head of Global Sales at Finnair Cargo, adds, “The platform completes our online booking portfolio and allows freight forwarders to digitally book available Finnair Cargo capacities for general cargo at live prices on routes to Finnair destinations in Asia, Europe and the US.”
