Emirates SkyCargo appoints Ross Barnett as UK Cargo Manager

Emirates SkyCargo has appointed Mr.Ross Barnett as UK cargo manager.

Ross has over 30 years’ experience in the industry, he joined Emirates in 1995 and was most recently cargo manager for Northern England and Scotland where he was responsible for a team of over 20 staff stationed in the region.

Now based in London, he will oversee a total of 45 staff, as his remit expands to encapsulate the whole country. He will also oversee cargo operations for 18 daily passenger flights and two Heathrow full freighter services.

Emirates exported more cargo from the UK than any other airline for the first time in December 2016, according to IATA figures and therefore is one of the major Cargo players in the UK.

Traffic was up 29% on the same month in 2015, to nearly 5,700 tonnes. Total cargo volume flown by the UK arm between January 2014 and December 2016 was nearly an impressive 190,000 tonnes.

Emirates SkyCargo has recently developed a number of ‘vertical’ offerings aimed at specific markets including SkyPharma, for temperature sensitive pharmaceuticals, and SkyWheels, for the transportation of luxury cars.

Emirates SkyCargo is also the first cargo airline in the world to obtain GDP certification for its hub operations covering two airports, Dubai International and Dubai World Central together with the bonded trucking service between them.
