Thai VietJet Air Boosts Cargo Operations with ECS Group GSSA Agreement

Thai VietJet Air has signed a master air cargo GSSA agreement with ECS Group for its Asia operations.

ECS Group subsidiary AVS GSA Thailand will handle the contract responsibilities, supported by the overall ECS Asia network.

The agreement, signed in February, allows low cost airline Thai VietJet Air to utilise ECS Group’s in-house digital tools and knowledge to promote its cargo business effectively.

Thai VietJet Air currently operates a fleet of 18 Airbus A320-200 and A321-200 aircraft, focusing primarily on transporting general cargo and perishables.

The airline now aims to further increase its cargo revenue and export volumes across Thailand and various Asian countries, including Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, China, Taiwan, Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.

“Thai VietJet Air has carved a solid cargo market share for itself on the Thai domestic market, and offers an impressive international network across Asia – and all that without a freighter in its fleet,” said Monchai Jirakiertivadhana, AVS GSA chief executive Indochina region.

“AVS GSA therefore has an excellent base on which to further develop the airline’s cargo activities and improve its revenue performance.

“We are very proud to have signed a Master GSA agreement with a company that demonstrates the same innovation and business acumen as ECS Group does,” added Adrien Thominet, executive chairman of ECS Group.

“ECS Group will provide the best sales support as well access to all our abilities. We warmly welcome our new partner.”
