Each year, the CNS Partnership Conference gathers some of the brightest minds and leading voices in the air cargo industry, and we were thrilled to attend this year’s event in Miami.

As one of the most significant events on the North American logistics calendar, CNS offers the opportunity to engage with our customers, partners, and peers across the supply chain in this region. From forwarders and service providers to airline operators, the event brings together the full cargo ecosystem for three days of discussion, innovation, and relationship-building.

Strengthening connections, driving growth

North America remains a key strategic market for IAG Cargo, and events like CNS are instrumental in reinforcing our commitment to customers across the region. Following a strong showing in 2024, we returned this year with a clear mission: to gain invaluable customer insights and deliver key messages about our evolving offering. The conference provided a platform for our team to share updates on our expanding capabilities, including:

  • The next major step in our digital journey – guaranteeing customers always get the best price when they book directly through IAGCargo.com.

  • The growing footprint of our premium product network, including new investments such as the Cincinnati Constant Climate station.

  • Our extensive and efficient trucking network significantly strengthens our logistical capabilities in North America. One of our most active trucking lanes runs between Chicago and Cincinnati—a vital corridor for both inbound and outbound cargo. We're also leveraging continuous growth opportunities from our double daily service to Austin, supported by seamless trucking connections from Houston and Dallas

  • Key network developments, capacity increases, and strategic updates tailored to the North American market.

Our recently announced 2025 summer schedule brings even more capacity to the region from our four global hubs, including:

  • Three-times weekly services to San Francisco, operating from both Madrid and Barcelona.

  • The return of flights to Denver from Dublin.

  • Additional services on established routes such as Chicago, Vancouver, and Washington from London Heathrow.

Engaging with the industry, shaping the future

CNS isn’t just about showcasing our capabilities — it’s also a chance to gain insight into the latest industry trends. The 2025 programme included keynote speeches from influential leaders, panel discussions on digital transformation and sustainability, and hands-on workshops focused on customer experience and operational excellence.

Yet for IAG Cargo, the real value lies in the one-on-one meetings and networking sessions that enable meaningful conversations with both long-standing customers and new prospects. These conversations help us understand evolving customer needs, identify collaboration opportunities, and gather information that shapes our future offering.

Looking ahead in North America

As one of the world’s most dynamic and competitive air cargo markets, North America plays a crucial role in our global strategy. Rodrigo Casal, IAG Cargo’s Regional Commercial Manager for the Americas, commented:

“North America is one of the biggest cargo markets globally, and its scale, economic diversity, and innovation make it a natural priority for IAG Cargo. It’s where we continue to see strong potential for growth and collaboration.”

With increased summer capacity from our four global hubs to multiple destinations across the US, and a sharpened focus on digitalisation and service quality, we are well-positioned to support our customers’ growth in 2025 and beyond.

The insights and relationships gained in Miami will ripple across our operations and continue to influence how we deliver for customers across the region.
