Cargolux Airlines International SA careers and jobs

In 1970, Cargolux Airlines International S.A. started operations from its newly established home base at Luxembourg airport with a handful of Canadair CL-44 freighters. 50 years later, Cargolux is Europe’s biggest all-cargo airline with a fleet of modern Boeing 747-8 and 747-400 freighters.

As an undisputed leader in air cargo, Cargolux offers an extensive product range, covering everything from every-day cargo to shipments that require attention to detail, special treatment and expert handling. Backed by 50 years of experience, the highly specialized Cargolux teams can cater to the most demanding requirements customers may have.

Cargolux’s high-quality scheduled and charter air freight services across the globe use an all-747 freighter fleet and a solid network of trucking contractors to move valuable and time-sensitive commodities on its network, covering more than 90 destinations.
