The story
Air France Cargo and KLM Cargo joined forces in 2004.
Air France KLM Martinair Cargo is part of Skyteam, an air cargo alliance, along with 11 other airlines.
On 23 February 2009, Air France KLM Cargo took delivery of its first Boeing 777F and was the launch customer for this aircraft.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, it was one of the first groups to begin transporting temperature-controlled pharmaceutical products.
On 16 December 2021, Air France KLM Cargo signed a letter of intent for the acquisition of four Airbus A350F aircraft.
On 3 April 2023, Air France-KLM and CMA CGM Air Cargo officially launched their long-term strategic air cargo partnership: a commercial joint-venture that combines both groups’ complementary air cargo offerings.
However, on 16 January 2024, Air France-KLM and CMA CGM announced they would terminate their strategic air cargo partnership, effective 31 March 2024, due to restrictive regulatory environments in key markets. While ending the joint venture initiated in April 2023, both companies stated they would continue to work together independently, with CMA CGM remaining a major shareholder.
