Air France-KLM and CMA CGM Group are to terminate their existing strategic partnership on cargo from March 31, a year after it became effective. The two companies are in negotiations for a new agreement that will see them collaborate on an independent basis.
In a media release on Tuesday, Air France-KLM said: “The tight regulatory environment in certain important markets has prevented the cooperation from working in an optimal way.”
