Budapest Airport cargo connects to Western China
Budapest Airport welcomed a new airline to its cargo carrier roll call last week, as the Hungarian gateway celebrated the arrival of Sichuan Airlines. Inaugurating a route from its base in Chengdu, the regional airline of Western China will operate a three times weekly service with its fleet of A330-300 converted freighters and use Budapest as its regional cargo hub for Central Eastern Europe (CEE).
Budapest now operates 60 full freighter flights weekly with 14 cargo carriers. The important expansion of the airport’s cargo connectivity represents Hungary’s capital city’s first regular cargo connection to Western China and is an indication of the significant increase in trade between the two regions.
