Tightening ties between the UAE and Africa


Astral Aviation, a cargo airline based in Nairobi (Kenya) with an extensive network in Afrika, and Etihad Cargo, the cargo and logistics arm of Etihad Airways, successfully completed the inaugural flight to Abu Dhabi (UAE) on 21 March.

 

This flight followed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed by the two carriers, which aims to expand Etihad Cargo's reach into the African market. After the success of the inaugural flight, Astral Aviation will resume weekly operations from Abu Dhabi starting 28 March.

 

Stanislas Brun, VP cargo of Etihad Cargo (left, with Sanjeev Gadhia, CEO of Astral Aviation, and Wilson Chan, SVP – freezone cargo & logistics of Abu Dhabi Airports): "Together, Etihad Cargo and Astral Aviation will offer air cargo solutions that cater to the dynamic needs of partners and customers, especially in the fast-growing African market."
