Emirates SkyCargo launches new vertical, read details
Image: DMO/ Emirates SkyCargo Emirates SkyCargo, the cargo division of Emirates airline, has launched a specialised product named Aircraft Engines, designed to transport one of aviation's most critical and high-value components. The service falls under a newly introduced vertical, Aerospace and Engineering, focused on providing high-precision logistics solutions to the aerospace, defence, and space sectors. 'Moving highly specialised items is always an exciting challenge, and, having significantly invested in building world-class infrastructure across our network, it's a challenge that we are ready to meet,' said Badr Abbas, DSVP of Emirates SkyCargo. 'Harnessing the technical expertise of our team, our proprietary and innovative technology and fit-for-purpose infrastructure, we liaised closely with various stakeholders to develop aircraft engines and a dedicated product vertical, to ensure we were able to cater to such valuable and technical cargo at every touchpoint.' Read: Aircraft engines, due to their complexity and value, are often moved for maintenance, repair or replacement and require swift, highly specialised handling. Emirates SkyCargo worked closely with manufacturers, operators, and external consultants to optimise its existing processes, resulting in a dedicated solution for the global movement of engines. The Aircraft Engines solution includes end-to-end expert oversight, with certified loadmasters supervising each stage of the shipment — from loading and securing to unloading. The carrier uses specialised handling equipment, including shock-absorbing transport dollies, and offers real-time shipment monitoring through its control tower team and optional track-and-trace devices. The service also prioritises speed, offering the highest loading priority for engine shipments to minimise ground time and keep customer aircraft operations running efficiently. A team of experts is based in key cities across the network to provide round-the-clock consultation via a dedicated hotline and email channel, enabling faster response times. Emirates SkyCargo says its vast global network, competitive connection times, and the ability to swiftly reroute freighters give it an unmatched edge in delivery times. Emirates SkyCargo's new vertical includes AOG service The newly introduced Aerospace and Engineering vertical is aimed at a targeted customer base that includes commercial aviation companies, aircraft manufacturers, defence and space sector clients, and government entities. Alongside Aircraft Engines, the vertical also includes Emirates AOG (Aircraft on Ground), a service for time-critical aircraft parts. Emirates recently enhanced this offering with distinctive 'Must Go' bags stamped with 'CARGO' for quicker recognition and handling. Additional subcategories under the vertical are currently in development to broaden Emirates SkyCargo's specialised services.

In addition to Aircraft Engines, the vertical includes Emirates AOG (Aircraft on Ground) which expedites time-critical aircraft parts. Emirates SkyCargo already moves multiple shipments of aircraft parts every day, and has recently enhanced this offering, introducing new and even more distinctive 'Must Go' bags stamped with 'CARGO' to ensure the highest level of speed and service for global customers. Additional subcategories under Aerospace and Engineering are already in development, to ensure Emirates SkyCargo offers customers a comprehensive suite of services. Emirates SkyCargo is already a first-choice carrier for aircraft engines, averaging hundreds of shipments every year, across its vast global network. The airline has also been involved in historic aerospace movements, including the KhalifaSat, the first satellite developed and built by Emirati engineers in the UAE at the Mohammed Bin Rashid Space Centre (MBRSC), which flew from Dubai to South Korea. Most recently, Emirates SkyCargo moved nanosatellites from Paris to Auckland, before they were launched into orbit to provide global Internet of Things connectivity.
