On January 21, the first self-owned Boeing 747-8F of Hongyuan Air Cargo was successfully delivered. Representatives from Hongyuan Holdings Group and Xiamen Taikoo Aircraft Engineering Co., Ltd. held an aircraft delivery ceremony at the Xiamen Taikoo Aircraft Maintenance Hangar.
The Boeing 747-8F delivered this time will be put into use in March and is planned to be put into use on the new "Chengdu, China=Brussels, Belgium" international freight route of Hongyuan Airport, providing customers with stable and reliable transportation capacity guarantee. The Boeing 747-8F full cargo aircraft is a relatively mature model with strong cargo carrying capacity, capable of carrying approximately 140 tons of cargo with a full load. Additionally, due to its long flight range, it can greatly improve cargo efficiency.
In 2021, the airport Hongyuan officially put into use at the first class cargo station in Brussels. The cargo station covers an area of approximately 10000 square meters and is equipped with upgraded cargo circulation channels and intelligent warehousing systems. Its designed throughput can serve 7 inbound and outbound flights per week, with a cargo volume of up to 1400 tons. Moreover, Brussel currently has a truck flight team covering all of Europe, providing customers with a full chain of international freight services.
The addition of the first self-sustaining carrier is an important milestone in the development of Hongyuan Airport's air cargo business. Not only can it provide customers with more stable transportation capacity and customized services and products, but it also further improves the strategic layout of Airport Hongyuan in the aviation logistics field, laying a more solid foundation for Airport Hongyuan to become a respected and trustworthy cross-border trade comprehensive service provider.
