About European Cargo
From 2018-2020, European acquired a total of sixteen Airbus A340 passenger aircraft from a variety of carriers – Virgin Atlantic, Etihad Airways and Iberia. European Cargo began operations in April 2020 when its parent company, European Aviation, responded to an urgent charter request by the UK government for PPE transport from Malaysia. The carrier operated an initial series of freight services with the aircraft which were painted in commemorative liveries as a tribute to the British National Health Service. There then followed over 400 charter flights with both PPE and testing kits. In 2022, European Cargo began converting its widebody fleet into a permanent freighter configuration (the aircraft had been operating as temporary “preighters” – passenger aircraft temporarily repurposed for freight operations), with the first of these certified by the EASA in December of that year. In April 2023, the first operations commenced with three times weekly flights scheduled between Bournemouth (BOH) and Chengdu (CTU). A second aircraft followed in August and a third in November, all operating on the same routing. In March 2024, flights commenced from Haikou (HAK). The conversion process continues, with a fourth aircraft operational in July, a fifth converted by August and the sixth aircraft operational by September.
