(MENAFN- Trend News Agency)
Silk Way West Airlines expands its US network by adding regular
services to and from Dallas Fort Worth, the second major freight
hub in the country to be served by scheduled services alongside
Chicago O'Hare . In addition to the Dallas and Chicago routes, Silk
Way West Airlines operates charter flights to Rockford Illinois,
Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky and Rickenbacker airports.
Silk Way West Airlines has chosen Dallas, one of the key gateway
locations in the US, as an additional hub facility. Conveniently
located along several major highways, Dallas is ideally positioned
to allow the airline to meet strong demand from consumer goods,
high-tech and oil and gas cargo for inbound and outbound
transportation. This major city is a strategic distribution center
for the region, making it the perfect base for Silk Way West
Airlines to serve US freight traffic.
Commenting on the new service, President of Silk Way West
Airlines Wolfgang Meier said:“Silk Way West Airlines continues to
build on our recent competitive success and favorable market
conditions by creating more options for direct freight services
between North America, Asia and Europe, allowing our valued
customers greater flexibility in scheduling and efficiently
transporting their freight across the globe. In addition to adding
services to the US, we are also expanding our wider global network
to include new destinations such as Hanoi and Bangkok in Asia and
East Midlands in Europe.”
Founded in 2012 in Baku, at the heart of the Silk Road, Silk Way
West Airlines operates around 350 monthly flights across the globe
via its fleet of 12 dedicated Boeing 747-8F and 747-400F aircraft
based at Heydar Aliyev International Airport. On April 28, 2021,
Silk Way West Airlines signed a strategic fleet expansion agreement
with Boeing for the purchase of five state-of-the-art 777
Freighters. The airline's annual cargo turnover exceeds 420,000
tons, while its growing route network covers over 40 destinations
across Europe, the CIS, the Middle East, Central and Eastern Asia,
and North and South America. South Korea's Incheon Airport honored
Silk Way West Airlines with the prestigious 'Cargo Airline of the
Year 2020' award.
