Korean Air cargo business began in 1971 with Seoul-LA route, the first trans-pacific network in Korea. Since then, we have expanded our business through the introduction of B747-400F cargo aircraft and dedicated cargo terminals overseas, such as New York and Tokyo airport. From 2004 to 2009, Korean Air Cargo was ranked No. 1 in the international cargo transportation category announced by IATA. We operate a total of 23 freighters including B747-8F and B744F. Recently in April 2019, we introduced a new cargo system, iCargo, for better customer service.
