National Airlines to launch round-the-world freighter service

NATIONAL Airlines and Navitrans USA have announced plans to launch a weekly scheduled round-the-world freighter service deploying a B747-400F from June 1. 

The new route is a marathon of global freight hubs, touching down in O'Hare, Liege, Azerbaijan's Baku airport, Hong Kong, Narita International Airport (NRT), Anchorage and then back to O'Hare.



The new route will be in addition to another twice weekly scheduled operation that National flies for Navitrans, between the US and China, reports New York's Air Cargo World.



"This RTW route will connect five key gateways throughout North America, Europe, Mid-Asia and Far East in around 36 hours," said Navitrans USA president Martin Zhu.



National Airlines president Mark Burgess said the company's global reach, ability and flexibility enables it to customise operations to meet the needs of Navitrans.



National Airlines is based in Orlando, Florida, and routinely flies from the US and Europe to the Middle East, Africa, Asia and Australia, as well as North and South America.
