Last week, Emirates SkyCargo and Express Trailers, had a special passenger in the belly of the Dubai-bound Boeing 777: a Porsche Panamera.
At the very busy airport in the height of the travel season, fascinated onlookers watched as the Porsche Panamera was meticulously transported across the apron before loading into the cargo hold of the widebody passenger plane.

The luxury sports car received the VIP treatment from the moment its flight was booked. Express Trailers, one of the leading and most trusted transport and logistics companies in Malta, offers a door-to-door service, handling all documentation, handling and screening of the vehicle, before the Porsche Panamera even arrives at Malta International Airport.
Upon arrival at the airport, an Emirates SkyCargo loadmaster who flew in specifically to oversee the shipment, expertly directed the entire operation, ensuring the safe and secure handling of such high-value cargo.
Stephania Galea, Emirates Cargo Manager, Malta commented: “In the past 25 years that Emirates has been connecting Malta to over 140 global destinations, we have supported with several specialist operations, such as the transportation of vehicles, utilising our team of experts and world-class infrastructure.
