According to Air New Zealand, its Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner is the the world's first Dreamliner to conduct a cargo flight operation on 31 March 2020. It successfully arrived at Shanghai Pudong International Airport i the early morning of 31 March with loads of cargo, mainly honey and seafood from New Zealand. The cargo flight marks Air New Zealand's resumption flight to the Chinese market.
The Pudong cargo flight marks the official launch of Air New Zealand's "passenger-to-cargo" transportation model, which aims to provide transportation guarantee for the important import and export trade between China and New Zealand during the covid pandemic.
The 787-9 Dreamliner in charge has higher fuel efficiency and lower carbon emissions than similar models. It can carry 11 pallets of cargo. Each pallet can hold a volume of 12 cubic meters containing goods weighing up to 4600 kg. Goods include medical supplies, anti-pandemic materials and food.
The deployment of passenger aircraft on cargo operations ensures the normal transportation on important international freight routes, thereby providing strong support for New Zealand's local economy.
The launch of Air New Zealand's cargo service immediately attracted global customers. At present, Air New Zealand's international route network has strong cargo demand at multiple stations in Shanghai, Hong Kong, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Sydney and Melbourne.
In addition to the "passenger-to-cargo" attempt, Air New Zealand has also taken a number of other innovative initiatives, including providing customers with charter services covering all Air New Zealand routes (except London), and also launching a "multi-party charter agreement", Importers and exporters facilitate the transportation of goods. Under this agreement, customers can order and use a single pallet space, or cooperate with freight forwarders to use the same pallet space to transport goods with other importers and exporters.
