Last week, Hurricane Melissa tore through the Caribbean, disrupting our operations out of MBJ (Montego Bay, Jamaica), displacing thousands of local families and leaving communities in urgent need of food, shelter and supplies.

Through the steady buzz of conveyor belts and rolling dollies against the concrete floor, the stacked boxes the noises emanate from don’t look like anything special. Just another shipment. But, as the sound rises and falls, weaving itself into the hum of the day, it’s clear the boxes hold something far from ordinary.

United Cargo and CargoAi have formed a strategic partnership to expand digital connectivity in the airfreight industry.

Our Cargo team works 24/7 to fly hundreds of thousands of pounds of shipments around the world every day. That includes anything from electronics and pharmaceuticals to fresh flowers and perishable goods — every year haute couture straight from the runways of New York, Paris and Milan.
