Some of the countries added to the carrier's network include Accra, Algiers, Athens, Fort Lauderdale, Glasgow, Larnaca, Los Angeles, Male, Moscow (SVO), Phnom Penh, Rome, Santiago, Sialkot and Tunis.

This comes as part of Emirates SkyCargo's response to the growing economic activity and demand for air cargo capacity from markets across the world.

In addition to loading cargo in the belly hold, Emirates SkyCargo has also introduced loading select cargo on the passenger seats and overhead bins of its Boeing 777-300ER aircraft.
