Cargojet sees strong volumes after 2023 fleet reversal

Cargojet on Monday reported a US$25.8 million loss in the fourth quarter mostly related to fuel and noncash charges, capping a rocky year marked by slashed plans for major fleet expansion and a renewed focus on cost management to boost free cash flow and investor returns.
