A second Boeing 777-200 freighter
Atlas Air, a subsidiary of Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, a global provider of outsourced aviation logistics, has expanded its strategic partnership with Yun Express, a subsidiary of Zongteng Group, by adding a second Boeing 777-200 freighter under a long-term charter agreement.
Deepening the successful relationship between Atlas and Yun Express, this second 777 freighter will enter service for Yun Express in April and operate six weekly routes between China and the USA. The new aircraft will enhance Yun Express’ international logistics network and help it serve the increasing demand for cross-border e-commerce shipping from China.
“Through our partnership with Yun Express, we are strengthening our position as the preferred supplier of dedicated airfreight capacity to major players in the e-commerce industry,” said Michael Steen, CEO, Atlas Air Worldwide. (cj)
