IAG Cargo, the cargo division of International Airlines Group (IAG), is set to resume services to Bangkok (BKK), Kuala Lumpur (KUL) and Tokyo Narita (NRT) for the first time since 2020.

From 28th October 2024, three rotations per week will be operating between London Gatwick (LGW) and Bangkok utilising a Boeing 777 widebody aircraft. There will also be daily services to Kuala Lumpur from London Heathrow (LHR) as of 10th November 2024 utilising a Boeing 787 widebody aircraft.

After a 4-year hiatus, services to Tokyo Narita will also be recommencing from Madrid Barajas Airport. This will be in addition to the ten weekly services to Tokyo Haneda (HND) from London Heathrow, enhancing connectivity for our customers between Europe and Asia.

These resumed routes will provide vital support to the automotive, engineering, perishable goods and high-tech industries.

Camilo Garcia Cervera, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer said: “We’re pleased to welcome back Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur to our schedule and resume flights to Tokyo from Madrid. These destinations represent crucial connections for cargo transport and will enable our customers in the Asia Pacific region to tap into our global network via our hubs in London, Madrid, Dublin and Barcelona.”
