Hong Kong Air Cargo adds all-cargo route to KSA

Hong Kong Air Cargo has launched a new e-commerce route connecting Hong Kong to Riyadh in a bid to boost links with the region, according to a statement. The air freighter will run two weekly all-cargo flights, operated by Airbus A330-200F aircraft, departing from Hong Kong International Airport to King Khalid International Airport every Monday and Sunday, the statement said.

Hong Kong Air Cargo has been expanding its regional footprint: The latest expansion comes on the heels of a similar move in December, which saw the cargo airline kick off a biweekly all-cargo service connecting Hong Kong with Dubai, marking the airline’s first Middle Eastern route.

ICYMI- KSA inked an MoU with Hong Kong to boost direct investment and expand economic cooperation late last year, SPA reported.
