Air Cargo Terminal a.s. is one of two, new 100 percent-owned subsidiary companies of Czech Airlines (CSA), which were registered with the Czech Commercial Registry in early April.

The subsidiary is the operator of the recently built cargo terminal at Prague’s airport and specialises in general air cargo handling services.

The establishment of the new subsidiary entities was approved in January 2007 at a special shareholders’ meeting and the decision was the fi rst step in the planned sale of both companies. However, CSA stipulates that it only intends to sell the companies if the sale would be advantageous to the airline.

Czech Airlines has retained the cargo handling operations for its own aircraft and CSA Cargo continues to be operated as a strategic business unit of the airline offering air cargo services for the shipping of goods and mail. Air Cargo Terminal, will be in charge of the clearance of the goods and all other handling services.
