CDI Cargo Airlines launches cargo services despite 'depressed' markets

摘要

Six months after the Civil Aviation Administration of China gave CDI Cargo Airlines the green light to launch operations, the carrier commenced B737-300 service from its Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport hub to Changchun, via Qingdao. And although Asian cargo has been rather sluggish lately, CDI Cargo's Alex Zhang said that the nascent carrier is poised for success. Unlike the Shenzhen-based Jade Cargo, which officially folded in June, and the Tianjin-based Grand-star Air Cargo, which suspended operations in May, CDI Cargo Airlines is targeting the domestic Chinese market for growth.
