SolitAir launches Dubai–Jinan cargo route

SolitAir has launched a new cargo route between Dubai World Central (DWC) and Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport (TNA), expanding its presence in China. The new service connects Dubai with Jinan Yaoqiang International Airport and follows the airline's existing operations to Hong Kong and Urumqi. The inaugural flight carried a VIP cargo shipment.

The new route provides businesses with another air freight link between the UAE and eastern China. It is expected to improve cargo movement by offering additional capacity and better access to markets across the Middle East, Africa and Europe through Dubai. The service also supports the transport of time-sensitive shipments, including high-value and specialised cargo.

Hamdi Osman, Founder and CEO of SolitAir, said China remains an important market for the airline and that the addition of Jinan is part of its plans to strengthen connectivity in the country and meet growing demand for cargo services.

The launch comes shortly after SolitAir began flights to Sofia, Bulgaria, its first destination in Europe. The airline said it will continue expanding its network by adding destinations that connect key trade corridors across Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Europe, supporting businesses that rely on faster and more direct cargo connections.
