The agreement, which commenced on April 1st, 2023, and continues till March 31st, 2024, reserves exclusively selected SACC freighter flights from Hong Kong to Riyadh and Liege.

As a result, we have increased our capacity and cargo flights to destinations in the Middle East, Africa, Asia, Europe, and North America to ensure we continue to meet the rising demand for e-commerce.”
