Silk Way West Airlines, the leading cargo airline of the Caspian region and Central Asia, signed a digital partnership agreement with CargoAi during Air Cargo China 2026 in Shanghai. This marked another important step in the airline's digital transformation journey.

The agreement was signed by Silk Way West Airlines President Wolfgang Meier and CargoAi CEO Matthieu Petot. The partnership reflects both companies' shared commitment to accelerating digital transformation and enhancing connectivity in the global air cargo industry.

Under the partnership, Silk Way West Airlines' services will be integrated with CargoAi's digital platform, enabling freight forwarders worldwide to more efficiently find available cargo transportation options on the airline's flights. The integration is expected to enhance rate transparency and, at the next stage, enable digital bookings through the CargoAi platform.

Through this collaboration, freight forwarders will be able to find suitable cargo transportation options faster and access Silk Way West Airlines' global route network via a convenient and transparent digital platform. It also aligns with the airline's broader goal of consistently improving the customer experience and increasing the accessibility of its cargo services in international markets.

Silk Way West Airlines operates a modern fleet of cargo aircraft and, through its strategically located hub in Baku, provides air connectivity between key markets in Europe, Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas. The partnership with CargoAi will enable the airline to expand its digital distribution capabilities and provide customers with additional ways to access its global cargo solutions.

"The partnership with CargoAi is an important milestone in our digital transformation," said Silk Way West Airlines President Wolfgang Meier. "By expanding digital booking capabilities, we aim to provide freight forwarders with more comprehensive information on available transportation options, accelerate the search and booking process, and make working with Silk Way West Airlines across our global route network as convenient as possible. This collaboration reflects our commitment to implementing innovative solutions that create additional value for customers and contribute to the further development of the air cargo industry."

"We are delighted to welcome Silk Way West Airlines into CargoAi's digital ecosystem. With the airline's extensive global route network and the capabilities of its widebody freighter fleet, freight forwarders will gain broader access to reliable air cargo solutions. We look forward to supporting Silk Way West Airlines in further enhancing the efficiency and transparency of their services, as well as expanding their digital accessibility for customers worldwide," said CargoAi Founder and CEO Matthieu Petot.
