Saudi Airlines Cargo Adds Freighter Capacity

Saudi Airlines Cargo will add additional flights to selected routes in its existing freighter schedule, effective from March and April.

The new schedule will include one additional weekly B747 freighter from Dhaka, Bangladesh, to Frankfurt, Germany, bringing the total number of freighter flights to four from Dhaka. It will also include one additional weekly flight from Hong Kong to Lagos, Nigeria, resulting in nine weekly flights from Hong Kong and eight to Lagos, as well as one additional weekly flight from Frankfurt to Saudi Arabia, bringing the total number of weekly flights to five.

“We are increasing capacity on these routes on the request of our clients in Hong Kong and Bangladesh,” said Peter Scholten, vice president of commercial at Saudi Airlines Cargo, in a written statement.
