The Dutch Skyteam member KLM has now carried out 100 cargo flights with machines that are actually used to transport passengers. The carrier calls the concept “cargo-in-cabin”.

So far, around 85 million MNS masks have been transported from China to Europe. According to the carrier, the hundredth such cargo flight was carried out on Thursday. Company boss Pieter Elbers was also on board. The aircraft used is one of three Boeing 747 station wagons that were put into service to create an airlift with China, which is of enormous strategic importance for the Netherlands.
