At transport logistic & air cargo India 2026 in Mumbai, Rajarshi Chatterjee of The STAT Trade Times speaks with Dennis Lister, Senior Vice President of Product and Innovation at Emirates SkyCargo.

In this exclusive conversation, Lister explains why India is a critical market for Emirates SkyCargo, driven by strong pharma exports, manufacturing growth, and many more. He shares how the airline is expanding capacity with new Boeing 777 freighters and leveraging its global network to connect India with key trade lanes.

Lister also discusses the growth of Emirates Courier Express, the role of freighters vs passenger belly capacity, and how Emirates manages complex, time-critical shipments—from industrial equipment to event logistics—while supporting the Middle East’s rise as a global events hub.

Looking ahead, he outlines the airline’s vision for innovation, digitalisation, and next-generation air cargo solutions.
