Saudi Airlines Cargo to establish Europe – USA connection

Saudi Airlines Cargo, the leading cargo carrier of Saudi Arabia, is expanding its main deck capacity to the USA out of Europe. The airline offers three B747 freighter flights per week to New York (JFK) and Houston (IAH) from their European hub in Brussels, Belgium.

From JFK and IAH, Saudi Airlines Cargo serves many onward destinations throughout the USA such as Atlanta (ATL), Detroit (DTW), Los Angeles (LAX) and Seattle (SEA).

“By adding the USA to our network, we do not only respond to the developments in the cargo market but also to the increasing demand of freighter capacity out of Europe to the USA, especially to Houston” says Sander van Woesik, Regional Sales Director Europe of Saudi Airlines Cargo.

“We consider our transatlantic connection a valuable addition to our network and with our global coverage, we are convinced that we can serve the freight forwarders and their customers even better”. 

Saudi Airlines Cargo operates 12 freighters and sells the belly-capacity on 125 passenger aircraft for Saudi Arabian Airlines spanning a rapidly expanding global network of 225 destinations.
