Woman-owned GSA to serve as cargo GSA for Alaska Airlines and Sun Country Airlines. Both are domestic passenger airlines.
BOSTON, MA, April 2022 – ImEx Cargo, a top, independently- and woman-owned airline general sales and service agent for New England, New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia, will serve as GSA for Alaska Airlines and Sun Country Airlines effective April 1, 2022.
ImEx Cargo will be providing full cargo sales, marketing, and customer service to represent the passenger airlines’ schedules throughout New England. The primary markets will include seafood, perishables, medical supplies, pharmaceuticals, organs, and pets.
“We have served as GSA to expand the brand footprints for some of the largest global cargo airlines,” stated Michelle DeFronzo, ImEx Cargo’s CEO. “We are excited to represent cargo sales and bookings for these two reputable domestic airlines.”
Alaska Airlines is the only passenger airline in the U.S. with dedicated cargo planes. With over 300 planes, they offer 1,200 daily flights to 100+ destinations across North America.
Sun Country Airlines is based in Minnesota with 34 passenger aircraft and flights to twenty cargo shipping locations across the U.S. and including Puerto Rico. Seasonal capacity is allocated by market, time of year, and day of the week, which operates from Boston starting in April through November.
Michelle DeFronzo said, “our first extraordinary shipment for Alaska Airlines will be transporting pieces of a glacier from the summit plateau of Mt. Hunter in Denali National Park. This is part of a university climate study to understand changes to pollution, glacier melt, snowfall, wildfire, and atmospheric circulation in Alaska, as part of a larger ongoing project.”
