Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of the Etihad Aviation Group has announced that it will enhance its operations in the United States by appointing Accelerated, Inc and Jet Airways as road feeder service providers.
Road feeder is a service offered by a scheduled cargo operator to move its goods to and from the aircraft or cargo terminal by road. It allows the carrier to offer services to cities that it does not fly to.
