Aer Lingus Cargo, which offers airport to airport cold chain transportation services to and from key markets in Ireland and the US, has signed a master lease agreement with CSafe LLC, manufacturer of the only FAA approved active temperature-controlled RKN cargo container. This agreement expands the Aer Lingus AerCool service offering to customers requiring strict temperature management during transportation.

Commenting on the conclusion of the MLA, Peter O'Neill - Director of Cargo at Aer Lingus said "Aer Lingus Cargo and CSafe have worked closely to gain operating approval from the Irish Aviation Authority and to ensure that the deployment of the units is supported by fully trained staff throughout the network. The CSafe RKN significantly enhances our AerCool service offering and the availability of the unit throughout our network will ensure our customers' temperature controlled transport requirements can be met at very short notice. The units are available on a trip basis on all our flights linking, Dublin, Shannon, New York, Chicago, Boston and Orlando."
