The limitations raised by the pandemic COVID-19 are widely known, especially with regard to air cargo transportation. In a period of state of emergency, felt a little (or a lot) around the world, travel was drastically limited, leaving many airlines on the ground, and with them passengers and, in large part, cargo.

But it is not this virus that will stop us! Naturally experiencing greater difficulties in transporting goods by air, with some of the companies limiting – or even suspending – flights to and from Portugal, we went looking for ways to continue to serve our customers.

With this, we continue to have represented companies flying to several places of the world, among which:

• Africa
• North America
• South America
• Asia and the Pacific
• Middle East

Find available destinations by clicking on our represented:

• ANA Cargo
• LATAM
• Qatar Airways Cargo (Passengers)
• Qatar Airways Cargo (Cargo)

At a time when uncertainty dominates world trade, it is with some naturalness that we assume the possibility of adjustments and adaptations in the air cargo agendas and destinations above. Even so, we believe we are able to serve you with the best options that the market currently offers.

Green Ibérica’s Contingency Plan

As you may know, and like most Portuguese companies where this practice is possible, Green Ibérica has its contingency plan active, with the minimum essential services working in our facilities. This does not mean, in any way, that we reduce the demand or the quality of our service, on the contrary!

Fortunately, there are several technological tools on the market today that allow us to continue our work without limitations, and even with more alternatives! In contacts, for example, we are now available to answer via Microsoft Teams, or by the usual direct phones of each one in the company, which you can find HERE.

For more information, do not hesitate to contact us!

Last Saturday, August 24th, made two months that the regular flights of Qatar Airways Cargo to Portugal had begun.

After an initial period that require an essential and natural adaptation, we can say that we are very happy to have one of the largest and best airlines in the world here, and it is a great pride to Green Ibérica, to be chosen to be its representatives in Portugal.

Working with a company of this dimension and experience remains a challenge that gives us a great pleasure. And we can say it has been a tremendous success! Admittedly, no worthwhile path is free of obstacles and unforeseen events, but it is these that give the most flavor to victory!

We look forward to continuing this successful partnership for many years to come, and consolidating the Portuguese market in the network of airports served by the airline.
