The renewed agreement, effective for a further three years, covers Canada and confirms the ongoing, successful collaboration between French Bee and Globe Air Cargo Canada across North America.
This partnership is particularly significant for Canadian exporters. French Bee is the only carrier to operate direct wide-body cargo capacity between Montreal-Trudeau (YUL) to Paris-Orly (ORY), connecting the two cities in just 7 hours. The Airbus A350-900 and A350-1000 service flies three time a week during the winter, and daily during the summer aircraft, offering up to 15 tonnes of weekly cargo capacity.
“This renewed agreement gives our customers continued access to a truly differentiated transatlantic solution,” says Elena Garduño, Commercial Director of Globe Air Cargo Canada. “French Bee’s direct Montreal-Orly service offers a compelling alternative for time and temperature-sensitive cargo, combining modern A350 capacity, reliable operations and fast access to the Paris region and beyond, through a far less congested airport environment. This is currently the best transatlantic air cargo connection to Rungis International Market, and there is great potential for an even stronger market share of perishables, healthcare products and general cargo flows between Canada and Europe. Globe Air Cargo Canada is here to maximise these businesses for French Bee and its many international customers.”
Paris-Orly’s proximity to Rungis International Market, the world’s largest fresh produce market, makes the service especially attractive for perishables moving from Canada into France and wider Europe. Key commodities include live lobster, snow crab, fresh salmon, fresh fish and seafood, wild mushrooms such as chanterelles, morels and porcini, fresh berries, specialty fruits and vegetables, and premium Canadian beef.
Beyond the Rungis connection, the direct Orly gateway also supports general cargo, e-commerce, retail freight and temperature-controlled healthcare shipments. Customers benefit from an extensive, scheduled road feeder service across Europe, connecting to major European hubs such as Amsterdam (AMS), Brussels (BRU), and Luxembourg (LUX), as well as reliable transit connections to French Overseas Territories destinations including Saint-Denis (RUN), Fort-de-France (FDF), Pointe-à-Pitre (PTP), Cayenne (CAY), Santo Domingo (SDQ) and Saint Martin (SXM).
Globe Air Cargo Canada will focus on growing perishables traffic from Canada, increasing awareness of French Bee’s unique Orly service and developing additional opportunities for healthcare and high-value time-sensitive shipments. An e-booking option with dynamic pricing is also expected to become available, supporting even greater speed and flexibility for customers.
