World Airways, a subsidiary of Global Aviation Holdings, has signed a one-year agreement with Jade Cargo International to operate one Boeing 747-400 aircraft on a full-time basis for air cargo service beginning in October, reported PRNewswire.
Subject to final government approvals, the aircraft will connect the Chinese industrial centres Shanghai and Yantai with Chicago in the United States. The three weekly flights will then continue to Amsterdam and return to Shanghai on a "round-the-world" flight pattern.
World Airways recently announced a significant increase in cargo fleet capacity with the addition of two Boeing 747-400 freighters, which will bring World's 747-400 fleet to four aircraft, in addition to nine MD-11 freighters.
