Emirates SkyCargo has launched AI Tech, a dedicated product designed to move critical and sensitive AI infrastructure safely and on time. Tailored for AI server racks, semiconductors, GPUs, capital equipment and other hardware, the product combines priority loading, specialised handling and proactive shipment monitoring through Emirates SkyCargo’s command centre in Dubai. The carrier transported more than 700 tonnes of AI infrastructure in July alone, and demand has continued to grow.
AI Tech provides customers with a dedicated logistics solution supported by globally standardised operating procedures including priority loading, enhanced shipment oversight and proactive customer coordination. Key features include dedicated handling procedures to maintain equipment orientation, priority loading for time-critical deployments, airport-to-airport shipment visibility and specialist project cargo support for oversized and heavy cargo.
Emirates SkyCargo developed AI Tech drawing on hands-on experience transporting AI-related hardware between manufacturing centres and key technology markets. By March 2027, the airline will operate a fleet of 23 dedicated freighters providing maindeck capacity for tall and dense server racks often weighing more than 3.5 tonnes. AI Tech is available across the global network for most AI-related cargo.
Badr Abbas shared “Behind every AI breakthrough is physical infrastructure that needs to arrive safely and on time. AI Tech is designed to give customers confidence that their critical equipment will move seamlessly across our network, supported by operational oversight and proactive communication. In July alone, we transported more than 700 tonnes of AI infrastructure across our global network, and demand has continued to grow. As this sector expands, our ambition is to become the carrier of choice for companies operating across the AI ecosystem.”
