Perishables across the Atlantic by American Airlines

摘要

American Airlines Cargo has opened its first controlled room-temperature facility in Europe, at London Heathrow airport. The 28 sqm facility has been designed to maintain temperatures between 15-25℃. The airline believes that this will enable it to enhance the temperature-controlled service options required for passive healthcare shipments, such as pharmaceuticals and biologicals. Tristan Koch, managing director of cargo sales in Europe, said that «the facility will be of special interest to our Irish pharmaceuticals customers with goods transiting through Heathrow.»
