Celebrating the 1st anniversary of flights to Chengdu!

24 April 2024

On 24th April 2023, G-ECLB took off at 1526 local time from Bournemouth Int’l Airport (BOH) bound for Chengdu, China (CTU).

Today, we celebrate one year of successful operations, with almost 300 flights operated between Chengdu and the UK, moving various UK exports outbound and carrying e-commerce volumes inbound.

During December 2023, the operations increased to 9 flights weekly and in total to date, almost 20,000 tons have been carried.

The programme to Chengdu continues as a scheduled operation, strongly supported by our partner at Bournemouth Airport: Cargo First.
