Arrival of our new Airbus A300-600 RF.

 

It is with great pride that we announce the arrival of our new A300-600RF Freighter.

The introduction of this new aircraft type to our fleet is part of the exciting expansion of our operations at Abu Dhabi and is a major step forward, in our goal of becoming the UAE's premium all cargo airlines. Our commitment to customer service and finding practical cost effective logistical solutions will be enhanced by this palletized aircraft capable of flying 45 tones of cargo worldwide.

Our Airbus aircraft offers two decks capable of taking pallets, ULDs and bulk loads. The aircraft can fit seamlessly into your scheduled or charter services to fulfill temporary large capacity shortfalls or be available to take your load to your intercontinental destination of choice.

The addition of this type of aircraft follows a decision to diversify from the total outsized cargo market to incorporate a freighter capable also of standard cargo options to/from Europe and North America.

The aircraft is the youngest converted A300-600 freighter from the EADS conversion plant in Germany and offers a more cost efficient and effective option for standard loads on established routes.

“This will bring our total fleet to 8 by the end of the year and represents a 100% growth rate over the last 2 years…” says Fathi Hilal Buhazza the airlines President & CEO.

“…because it is more environmentally friendly than older and noisier aircraft it will be welcomed without restrictions in all of the developed world’s population centers offering more direct destinations to our growing customer data base” he added.
