They will operate services from Milan Malpensa Airport in Italy, to Kansai International Airport, in Japan, and from Malpensa to Narita International Airport, in Japan. All are subject to approvals from the aviation authorities.
The cooperation between Cargolux Italia and NCA and represents an improved offering on the routes between Italy and Japan that also include two weekly flights from Milan Malpensa to Osaka and four weekly flights from Milan Linate Airport to Narita in addition to three weekly Cargolux flights from Luxembourg Airport to Komatsu Airport.
All flights benefit from connections to the Cargolux trucking networks in Europe and Japan, offering shippers several daily services between major European industrial centers and Japan.
