Parata Air picks Jettainer for ULD management ahead of launch
Each ULD will be equipped with advanced tracking technology, enabling efficient management through Jettainer’s intelligent IT platform.
South Korea’s newest airline, Parata Air, has selected Jettainer as its partner for Unit Load Device (ULD) management ahead of its flight operations launching this autumn. From day one, Jettainer will oversee the airline’s entire fleet of lightweight containers and support its continued expansion in line with Parata Air’s ambitious growth plans.
Each ULD will be equipped with advanced tracking technology, enabling efficient management through Jettainer’s intelligent IT platform, JettWareNG. Additionally, Jettainer will provide reliable maintenance services to ensure the optimal performance of the ULD fleet, according to an official release from Jettainer.
At the start, passenger services to Japan and Vietnam are planned via the airline’s hub at Incheon Airport with a fleet of Airbus A320-200s and Airbus A330-200s aircraft. Next year will see the addition of transpacific routes serving the North American market. Therefore, further Airbus A330 aircraft will be added to the fleet over the next two years. The introduction of Airbus A350s is planned for 2028.
“The partnership with Jettainer, a global leader in ULD management, is an important step and ensures a highly efficient supply of lightweight ULDs for our growing route network from the very first flight”, says Unhyung Ko of PARATA AIR. “We deliberately opted for the efficiency and service quality of the experts to be able to develop our operations flexibly while at the same time having an always efficiently managed fleet of ULDs that grows in line with our requirements.”
“We are very much looking forward to being part of Parata Air’s journey from day one, supporting their ambitious growth plans with the efficient management of lightweight ULDs. Adding another customer in Asia, we are also expanding our network in the region and creating valuable synergies for Parata Air and all our customers,” says Thorsten Riekert, General Manager Asia Pacific, Jettainer.
Parata Air’s predecessor is Fly Gangwon. Following its acquisition by WINIX last year, the company was renamed Parata Air and will commence flight operations in autumn.
