Another new maindeck destination in China
Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of Etihad Airways, has added a weekly freighter service between Abu Dhabi and Guangzhou in response to increased demand for cargo capacity for China.
In recent months, the carrier has continued to expand its Asian network, launching a fourth Chinese gateway to its network with a weekly freighter service to Ezhou, which made Etihad Cargo the first international carrier to operate flights to China's first professional cargo airport. The carrier also offers eight weekly freighter flights to Shanghai.
Leonard Rodrigues, head of revenue management, fleet and network: "Expanding our reach into the Chinese market will strengthen ties between the UAE and China and provide more opportunities to increase collaboration between the two countries." (ah)
