Widebody schedule: Ramping up to 2,200+ flights in September
As we all approach the busiest time of year, we're putting even more widebody aircraft to work moving your goods to 32 destinations around the world.
We're doubling our cargo-only operation to provide you with more than 1,000 cargo-only flights in September. Combined with our passenger service, that means you have 2,200 widebody opportunities to move your cargo on our aircraft.
We're committed to helping your business thrive, and we're excited to partner alongside you to keep the world moving.

Keeping our customers and team members safe
Safety remains our top priority, and we want you to know about the steps we’re taking to care for our team members, customers and vendor partners in response to the COVID-19. We have implemented measures beyond CDC recommendations to ensure we are compliant with all directives for preventing the spread of COVID-19 at our facilities and on our aircraft, including:
- A dedicated 24/7 COVID-19 support desk at our Integrated Operations Center (IOC), led by our staff doctor to lead coordinated response efforts and contingency plans
- Enhanced cleaning in all facilities
- Requiring face coverings for customers and team members — and providing them for those who may not have their own
- Ensuring social distancing as much as possible
- Continuing to install plexiglass shields at ticket counters across the system
- Conducting team member temperature checks at certain locations, including those required by state and local orders
- Making it easier to get tested for COVID-19
- Putting in place a pandemic leave program to support those who have COVID-19 or are otherwise required to quarantine
- Providing disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizer for airport team members and all cargo locations

We've updated some station hours
We've adjusted our operating hours in some of our stations throughout our network. Be sure to check your station's hours when planning your shipments.

Due to the reduction in our schedule, your preferred connections may no longer be available at this time and the aircraft type on continuing routes may have changed. Please be aware that options to book multiple segments or nonstop flights may be limited due to these factors.
Checked pets remain embargoed, but cargo has lifted all outbound U.S. and international restrictions inbound into the US, with the exception of Italy, Netherlands, Spain, and the U.K.
