SF Airlines Signs Bilateral Interline
Agreement with Teleport
(02/10/23)
SF Airlines, one of China's largest air cargo
carriers by fleet size, has signed a bilateral interline
partnership with Teleport.
Teleport, the Malaysian logistics venture seeded by Capital
A, is actively adding third-party airlines to its air
logistics network to expand into key airports such as Kuala Lumpur
and Bangkok from China, while extending network reach into new
markets such as Europe and the United States.
The company is a market leader by volume of
cargo moved across Southeast Asia and boasts one of the largest air
logistics networks in the region, utilising the surplus belly space
of 204 wide-and-narrow-body AirAsia passenger aircraft.
Additionally, Teleport inducted the first of three Airbus A321
Freighter (A321F) aircraft in July, further solidifying its
leadership position in the region.
“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,” said Pete Chareonwongsak,
Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Teleport. “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. This collaboration reflects our relentless
commitment to revolutionise air logistics in Southeast Asia and
beyond – to provide our customers with a faster, more affordable,
and uncomplicated go-to choice to move things across Southeast
Asia, and now globally.”
SF Airlines operates a fleet of 84
freighters serving approximately 90 destinations. Its international network includes destinations in Europe, the
United States, Middle East and Southeast Asia, among others.
Li Sheng, Chairman of SF Airlines, said, “We're
delighted to partner with Teleport, a market leader in the
Southeast Asia region. This partnership allows us to deepen our
network access into Teleport’s wide network reach and frequency
into Southeast Asia as well as key Asia Pacific markets. We look
forward to this partnership in further strengthening our
commitment to continuously expand and strengthen our air-logistics
service capability.”
