Silk Way West Airlines will launch a twice-weekly Baku-Narita service on February 11 in a code-share agreement with Nippon Cargo Airlines.
Through regular direct flights, cargo will be delivered from Baku’s Heydar Aliyev International Airport to Narita International Airport, the most important international air cargo gateway in Japan.
Silk Way West Airlines has been serving the Japanese air cargo market since 2018, with weekly flights connecting Baku with Osaka Kansai airport. With the launch of new flights to the country, the company will play an increasingly important role in the region’s freight network.
“We are delighted that the new air bridge will connect our two capital cities directly for the first time in our history, and that the geographic reach of our regular flight network continues to expand and now fully covers North Asia,” said the President of the Silk Way Group, Zaur Akhundov.
“At the same time, we are constantly improving the air transportation infrastructure at Baku airport in order to meet the global demand for cargo services, and I can say with confidence that we are fully ready to handle any cargo, including temperature-sensitive goods.”
