JAS is proud to be part of Lufthansa Cargo’s expanded network to Italy through its partnership with ITA Airways—and to be on board one of the inaugural flights from Brazil to Italy on June 16.

As part of our ongoing commitment to a more sustainable future, we booked the “Sustainable Choice” Add-on Service and purchased an additional 10,000 liters of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) to help reduce CO₂ emissions from the very start.

Together with Lufthansa Cargo, we're helping to shape the future of greener supply chains.
