Throughout the pandemic, Etihad Cargo provided capacity including using cargo-only passenger freighters, and from this month, it will focus on passenger and freighter flights.
Adding to passenger flights, Etihad Cargo operates daily Boeing 777-200F flights to Shanghai and six a week to Hong Kong, offering over 2,700 tonnes of capacity in and out of China a week.
Martin Drew, Senior Vice President Global Sales and Cargo at Etihad Aviation Group, says, “As the Chinese market starts to recover from Covid challenges and zero-Covid restrictions are lifted, Etihad is pleased to resume its passenger operations to Beijing and reaffirm our commitment to Etihad Cargo customers with the introduction of capacity on key trade lanes. These flights will connect China to the Middle East, Europe and the rest of the world via Etihad Cargo’s hub in Abu Dhabi.”
