InterGlobe Air Transport (IGAT) has secured an exclusive agreement to serve as the General Sales Agent (GSA) for STARLUX Airlines' cargo services throughout India. This strategic collaboration is designed to bolster the Taiwanese airline's presence and operational reach within the Indian subcontinent.
STARLUX Airlines currently operates flights from Taiwan to various international destinations, including the United States, Czechia, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macau, and Vietnam. The appointment of IGAT as its cargo GSA in India signifies a crucial step in extending its network and tapping into the growing Indian air cargo market.
For freight forwarders and logistics professionals, this development means new direct or indirect air cargo capacity options for shipments between India and STARLUX's global network. It could lead to more competitive rates and improved transit times on these lanes, particularly for cargo destined for or originating from Taiwan, and onward connections to North America and parts of Europe via Taiwan. Forwarders should monitor STARLUX's flight schedules and capacity offerings from India as they become available through IGAT.
