MASkargo is targeting a second-half 2026 launch for the launch of its planned joint business with Qatar Airways Cargo and IAG Cargo, chief executive Mark Jason Thomas said at the Cargo Facts Asia 2026 conference. He added that the agreement is in its "final leg" ahead of implementation.

The partnership was first announced in April 2025 with an initial late 2025 target, subject to regulatory approvals. It aims to integrate cargo networks across major continents, offering single-booking routings and coordinated capacity.
