AirBridgeCargo Airlines launches B747 freighter services to Phnom Penh
AIRBRIDGECARGO Airlines (ABC) has commenced service to Phnom Penh, bringing the number of destinations it serves in Southeast Asia to 11.
The new freighter service will operate on a weekly basis en route from Moscow (SVO)-Singapore-Phnom Penh and returning to Sheremetyevo international airport, giving customers access to connections to 600 weekly destinations via the airline's SVO hub, reported the American Journal of Transportation.
The route will accommodate trade lanes from Cambodia to Europe and the United States, as well as complement ABC's existing Singapore flights.
AirBridgeCargo will operate the new flight with its Boeing 747 freighter, bringing 100 tonnes of cargo capacity to the market as well as the benefits of a freighter operation, notably aircraft nose loading capability for outsize cargo and expertise in the transportation of special cargoes.
"Against the backdrop of China's slowing export growth, the Cambodian market looks appealing with double-digit growth in 2015, supported by ambitious airport development plans," said ABC vice-president Robert van de Weg.
"We strongly believe that customers with export flows of fashion textiles and garments will benefit the most from this new service, and we will continue to promote our services in Cambodia to create new business relationships and support existing customers. "Furthermore, our current services in and out of Singapore are experiencing healthy demand so capacity expansion there strengthens our position too," said Mr van Weg.
