Cargolux Adopts Electronic Flight Folder with Cathay Technologies

Cargolux has partnered with Cathay Technologies to introduce an Electronic Flight Folder (EFF) system across its flight operations, aiming to centralize critical flight data and streamline pilot workflows in a fully paperless environment.

The agreement was signed at Cargolux's headquarters in Luxembourg, with Captain James Toye, Head of Line Operations at Cathay and Chief Product Owner at Cathay Technologies, and Claude Konsbrück, Vice-President Flight Operations at Cargolux, representing both companies.

The EFF platform digitizes and consolidates flight plans, load sheets, and fuel data into a single integrated system, designed to support faster, better-informed decision-making during operations. A key feature of the partnership is Ops Chat, a real-time communication tool embedded directly into the flight workflow that enables coordination between flight crews and ground teams.

"We set out to select an Electronic Flight Folder that delivers genuine innovation and moves beyond incremental evolution of legacy concepts," said Claude Konsbrück. "This new tool represents a clear investment in the sustainability and efficiency of our operations, fully aligned with our commitment to safety, and operational excellence."

Navin Chellaram, CEO of Cathay Technologies, said the partnership combines Cargolux's cargo operations expertise with Cathay Technologies' airline-proven digital platforms to create a foundation for scaling next-generation flight operations.
