Globe Air Cargo Dominican Republic, a subsidiary of ECS Group, has signed an agreement with Uniworld Air Cargo to act as its general sales and service agent for new freighter operations linking Punta Cana (PUJ) and Panama City (PTY).
The service launched on March 23, 2026, and runs twice weekly on Thursdays and Sundays using a Boeing 737 freighter, providing about 40 tonnes of capacity each week. It handles general cargo, live animals, perishables and oversized shipments.
Connections via PTY extend to destinations such as Bogotá, Caracas, Havana, San Salvador, Lima and San José. Additional routing through Mexico (NLU) supports access to the US and Canada.
Ivan Mejia, managing director of Globe Air Cargo Dominican Republic, stated: Securing this agreement with Uniworld is a strong validation of our commercial agility and market expertise. This operation not only strengthens connectivity within the region but also unlocks new opportunities for our customers through reliable, high-frequency freighter capacity.
Jossette Navarro, commercial director at Uniworld Air Cargo, said: The Dominican Republic represents a market with significant growth potential for both exports and imports. Beyond its local strength, it is a strategic gateway to Europe and Canada. Through this partnership with ECS Group, we are confident in our ability to accelerate our market penetration while offering competitive and efficient cargo solutions across the region and into North America.
