Cathay Pacific Cargo sets new standard for cargo shipments with IATA ONE Record pilot in Hong Kong

Cathay Pacific Cargo has taken a significant step towards the end-to-end digitisation of the global supply chain by taking the lead in its third pilot of IATA’s ONE Record initiative, this time at its home hub in Hong Kong. The success of this pilot marks a major milestone for Cathay Pacific Cargo, which has pioneered the implementation of this initiative. Cathay Pacific Director Cargo Tom Owen said: ”ONE Record is a very important programme, which is going to set the future standard for air cargo.” IATA ONE Record creates a ”Virtual Shipment Record” for all shipments; a single-record view of a shipment that will enable data to be shared by all stakeholders across the air cargo industry. The programme builds on paperless operations of the e-AWB (Electronic Air Waybill). Cathay Pacific Cargo was the first airline to implement 100% e-AWB operations in its home market and the airline has been the leader in its implementation around the world for the past 10 years, contributing to Hong Kong’s reputation as the leading international air cargo hub.
