SF Airlines expands to Papua New Guinea

SF Airlines is continuing to expand with the launch of a new route between Shenzhen in China and Port Moresby in Papua New Guinea. The first flight on the route took place on August 20 using a B747-400 freighter, carrying electrical equipment, said SF Airlines in a press release. This is the first cargo route encompassing Oceania, said the Chinese freighter airline, which already operates in Asia, Europe and the US. SF Airlines also recently launched a new air cargo route between China’s first cargo airport Ezhou Huahu and Abu Dhabi International, using a Boeing 747-400 freighter. And following Abu-Dhabi-based Etihad Cargo’s expansion of its reciprocal block space agreement with SF Airlines, the airline has recently operated its first flight to Ezhou Huahu Airport. Ezhou Huahu Airport officially opened in July last year and is promoted as China’s first “professional cargo hub airport”. The first international flight from the airport took place in April.<br/>
