A B757-200 all-cargo aircraft of SF Airlines took off from the Changsha Huanghua International Airport at around 11:00 am on April 11, and would arrive in Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, at 8:00 pm on the same day. This marked the resumption of Changsha airport’s third international all-cargo flight route this year, after the Changsha-Kuala Lumpur route of AirAsia Airlines and the Changsha-St. Paul route of Belarusian Airlines.

The newly-resumed route operates three times a week on Mondays, Tuesdays and Saturdays. It will mainly satisfy the trading demands for the imports and exports of garments, garments textile raw materials, cloth rolls, machinery and equipment, among other things.

These efforts ensured the smooth export of 26 tons of cargo.

The resumption of the route is of great significance to the steady economic development of Hunan province under the current situation of normalized epidemic prevention and control.
