Korean Air joins Freightos platform for digital cargo booking

Freightos Limited (NASDAQ: CRGO) announced an integration with Korean Air that gives freight forwarders access to the airline's real-time rates, live capacity, and direct eBooking capabilities across key global trade lanes.

The agreement was signed at Korean Air's Shanghai office and announced during the Air Cargo Shanghai 2026 event. Freightos described Korean Air as its exclusive launch partner for third-party platform distribution in an initial phased rollout covering major air cargo hubs in North America and Europe.

Freight forwarders in activated regions can search, quote, and book shipments across Korean Air's fleet of 166 aircraft, including 23 dedicated freighters, directly through the Freightos platform.

"Digitalization is a core component for maintaining a competitive edge in the global air cargo market," said Jae Dong Eum, EVP and head of the cargo business division at Korean Air. "By expanding our digital reach through Freightos, we are not simply establishing digital channels but actively delivering a seamless, high-value digital customer experience to our existing forwarders."
