In July 2008 Aeroflot-Cargo operated cargo fleet comprising of three DC-10F-40, two Boeing-737 freighter version aircraft. Also the second and the third MD-11F were being introduced to join Aeroflot-Cargo fleet. In 2009 freighter fleet of Aeroflot-Cargo only comprises of three MD-11F.

Operational activity results of the recent period indicate that Aeroflot-Cargo continues its business as normal to meet our customers and partners demands. Aeroflot is now rated as number one domestic cargo carrier (January to May 2009). The rating (published in Aviation Market magazine) is based on Transport Clearance House figures. These results could not be possible without efforts being made by Aeroflot-Cargo team.
