Boosting connectivity with new Shenzhen route
Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of Etihad Airways, has expanded its partnership with China's SF Airlines to increase the frequency of flights between its hubs in Abu Dhabi and Ezhou.
Starting 15 July 2024, Etihad Cargo will operate two freighters between these two destinations, connecting China to its global network through the carrier’s Abu Dhabi hub. SF Airlines will operate an additional freighter from Ezhou, bringing the total number of flights between Abu Dhabi and Ezhou to five per week.
Etihad Cargo and SF Airlines will also launch a new weekly freighter service between Shenzhen and Abu Dhabi, adding a fifth gateway destination to Etihad Cargo’s Chinese network. Shenzhen Bao’an international airport, China's third-largest cargo airport, has been among the world's top 20 airports by cargo volume since 2021. (cj)
