Chennai - IndiGo sees significant opportunity for cargo movement between India and Europe as it launches its maiden service from Mumbai to Amsterdam and Manchester from July.

The airline will operate a wet leased Boeing 787 on the routes which can carry up to 18-20 tonnes of cargo in each direction.

“The opportunity for cargo for us is significant. It nicely coincides with the Make in India campaign which is becoming more and more prominent in terms of India becoming the global production hub,” IndiGo’s chief executive officer Pieter Elbers said . . .
