SF Airlines gains access to Teleport’s capabilities to support international expansion into Southeast Asia
Teleport and SF Airlines, China’s largest air cargo carrier by fleet, signed a bilateral interline partnership to leverage each other’s air network to better serve their respective customers.
Teleport brings to the table deep logistics access into Southeast Asia, and SF Airlines, the largest express network within China and outbound into European and North American markets, says an official release from Teleport. "This partnership has already moved significant cargo volumes for customers of both parties on the combined network."
Pete Chareonwongsak, CEO, Teleport says: “This partnership is in service of our continued efforts to add valuable third-party airline partnerships to Teleport. We are looking forward to supporting SF Airlines to expand their cross-border product in Southeast Asia.
“In turn, our partnership with SF Airlines, the largest cargo airline in China, not only strengthens our regional connectivity within China but also extends our market reach into Europe and the Americas, connecting our network globally beyond Southeast Asia. This will help us better serve our customers needs, deepen our end-to-end capabilities, and ramp up our ability to scale our business to better serve the region.”
SF Airlines operates a fleet of 84 freighters serving 90 global destinations, the release said.
