Amerijet extends Central American freight coverage to Managua, Nicaragua

2012 04 20


GLOBAL cargo transportation provider and airline Amerijet International is to launch a thrice weekly air cargo service between Miami and the capital of Nicaragua, Managua effective immediately.

The Miami-based Boeing 767-200 and B727-200 freighter operator is to extend its coverage to Central America which currently operates to and from El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico and Belize.

On top of the thrice weekly scheduled flights, it is to include a Sunday flight to support local importers wishing to receive and clear freight as early as 8am on Mondays at Managua's Aeropuerto Internacional Augusto C Sandino (MGA).

Its new facility can support perishable goods, hazardous materials and dry shipments for the local maquila (manufacturing operations in a free trade zone) industry, said its regional director of Central America, Alejandro Diaz-Vega. The new facility is open from 8am to 4pm on Mondays through Fridays and from 8am to noon on Saturdays.

At Amerijet's primary hub of Miami International Airport, it has a 19,500-square-metre export and 9,290-square-metres import air-cargo-handling facilities, as well as a 4,645-square-metre ocean cargo facility.

A custom-built 956 square-metre (21,127-cubic-metre) cooling facility was specially designed offering refrigerated and chilled storage space sub-divided into four climate-controlled chambers.
