Despite the delayed start of Henan Cargo Airlines, the air freight network of Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport and Cargolux in China and beyond has been strengthened by regional cargo carrier Zhongyuan Longhao Airlines.
The Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) will allow carriers up to seven weekly passenger and cargo flights under the new seventh freedom of the air trial on Hainan Island, a move to spur the growth of air travel and air cargo under the Hainan Free Trade Port (FTP) initiative.
