Japan Airlines (JAL) and CHAMP Cargosystems have extended their highly 
successful partnership for a further five years. 

    The carrier has been using CHAMP's acclaimed Cargospot solution to manage 
its day-to-day cargo business processes since 2014. Since then, JAL has 
partnered with CHAMP in a series of ground-breaking digital transformational 
projects built around the Cargospot ecosystem, including the launch of a cargo 
business platform that enables a fully digitalized end-to-end process across 
the airline's domestic operation, and a unique API-based solution that allows 
the airline's customers to compare and book against multiple air-to-air and 
ground transportation options.

    By extending their partnership with CHAMP, Cargospot will remain the IT 
keystone of JAL's cargo business, enabling the airline to take advantage of the 
solution as it continues to evolve for the benefit of CHAMP's large and growing 
customer community. JAL's operation of Cargospot will be supplemented and 
further enhanced by the airline's continuing use of CHAMP's ULD Manager and 
Traxon compliance services, which support pre-loading and pre-arrival 
declarations to customs and border protection authorities.

    "The Cargospot ecosystem has vast potential for our growing customer 
community," says Nicholas Xenocostas, VP Commercial & Customer Engagement at 
CHAMP Cargosystems. "Our solutions have been and will continue to be at the 
core of Japan Airlines' cargo operations. Cargospot and CHAMP's other services 
continue to evolve in line with its emerging business needs and continue to be 
an integral part of our long-term digital transformation.

    CHAMP is honored to have Japan Airlines renew its confidence in our 
technologies and our people."
