Flydubai adds to Kuwait's freight expectations

Ghaith Al Ghaith, CEO of flydubai, said: "Kuwait is an important market for Flydubai. We aim to make shipments more affordable with free online tracking and Flydubai is the only cargo operator offering electronic air waybills helping to keep costs down for our customers.
“We have already seen strong demand for our cargo services and look forward to further strengthening business links between Kuwait and the UAE through this new service," he said.
With seven flights a day between Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), goods will be shipped on a fleet of brand new B737-800NG aircraft.
The carrier has already signed a number of interline agreements with carriers, including Emirates, Singapore Airlines and British Airways, to ship goods beyond Flydubai’s passenger network, which now spans more than 50 destinations.
Among the most in-demand shipments from Kuwait are courier services to the UAE, personal effects to India, Nepal and Bangladesh and beyond Flydubai’s network to the UK and US. Inbound shipments include perishable items such as fruit, vegetables, fish and electronic goods.
