In a recent statement, Mathilde de Rocquigny, Director of Air France KLM Martinair Cargo in Mexico, expressed the benefits and operational efficiency experienced at the Felipe Angeles International Airport (AIFA). The relocation of cargo operations from the Mexico City International Airport (AICM) to AIFA, initiated in July 2023, has proven advantageous for both the airline and logistics companies.
Rocquigny highlighted the ample space provided by AIFA, which has streamlined tasks for cargo operations. Notably, the reduced traffic and improved loading and unloading processes contribute to a more efficient workflow compared to the previous scenario at AICM.
The director acknowledged the seamless transition, emphasizing that customers have adapted well to the change, and operational times have significantly improved. The presence of the Mexican Armed Forces at AIFA adds an extra layer of security, with Rocquigny praising the proficient management of the airport by the Secretariat of National Defense (Sedena).
Rocquigny expressed confidence that the airline industry will not witness abrupt changes affecting airport activities. The recent announcement of the restart of cargo flights to Guadalajara from Mexico City further solidifies the positive outlook, with each flight expected to transport around 80 tons of goods, predominantly fruits, and medicines. Besides KLM kanye companies will benefit from this enhanced efficiency and security measures.
