Crane Worldwide Logistics® charters the world’s largest aircraft

Antonov Inside

The Antonov AN-225 Mriya is the world’s largest aircraft, it landed safely in Dammam airport at the weekend transporting 223 pallets of chemical drums for Crane Worldwide Logistics®.

Given the lack of ocean vessels available, the Antonov AN-225 was the perfect choice to transport the high volume client request in a timely manner. With a keen sense of urgency, the Crane Worldwide team co-ordinated cargo from multiple vendors in both Singapore and Malaysia in order to maximize the load potential of the aircraft.

Present in Malaysia for almost 10 years, Crane Worldwide Logistics®  has developed significant experience managing complex moves for clients throughout the Asia Pacific region. End-to-End integrated supply chain services from freight movement to warehousing, project management, heavy lift, husbandry and marine crew services are all key components of the Crane Worldwide Logistics® solutions offering across a number of industries.

Daniel Cheah, Country Manager Malaysia at Crane Worldwide Logistics® was present throughout, monitoring and surveying the shipment loading, ‘We handle heavy cargo on a day-to-day basis, always looking for the most cost effective and time efficient solution to present to our clients. In this case, the Antonov AN-225 presented the perfect solution and it was a great moment to see this magnificent aircraft land once again in Kuala Lumpur’.

Seeing the Antonov An-225 for the first time is really impressive’, comments Stefan Gustafsson, Managing Director South East Asia at Crane Worldwide Logistics®‘Our technical experts in Malaysia have demonstrated their ability to translate a client’s need into an impressive solution involving the world’s largest aircraft, we are really very proud of their achievements’, he adds.
