The company’s China operations address a growing demand and broaden its access to customers in the APAC region.

By opening China, Magma Aviation now operates 29 dedicated flights per week on behalf of our customers across the USA, Africa, Asia and Europe.”

Magma Aviation plans to add additional capacity in the APAC region throughout 2023 to further support customer requirements.

We also hugely appreciate the ongoing support of our partners and clients. We continue to look to increase our presence in this important and dynamic air cargo market.”
