SF Airlines commences new China-Hungary air cargo route from cargo-focused Ezhou Huahu Airport

SF Airlines has launched a new international air cargo route connecting Ezhou Huahu Airport in central China’s Hubei Province with Budapest in Hungary. Launched on June 17, 2024, the Ezhou-Budapest cargo route is the first route linking Hungary with Ezhou Huahu Airport, China’s first cargo-focused facility. It is also SF Airlines’ third route from the airport to Europe. A weekly round-trip flight, operated by a Boeing 747-400 freighter, it offers over 200 tonnes of air cargo capacity. The direct air route will mainly serve parcel express and e-commerce goods, among others. It will expand channels for air logistics between the two countries and boost China-Europe economic exchanges. The Ezhou Huahu Airport, which began operations in July 2022, opened its first international cargo route by SF Airlines in April 2023, as per a report.
