Korean Air also keen on the freighter version

Korean Air has joined the growing list of Airbus A350F operators, converting seven of its existing A350-1000 passenger aircraft orders into the all-new freighter version. Airbus EVP Sales Benoît de Saint-Exupéry described the deal as "a significant endorsement of the A350F’s unique capabilities", noting that the aircraft "delivers the most efficient solution in the large freighter segment."

The twin-engine A350F can carry up to 111 t over 8,700 km and will reduce fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by up to 40% compared to older freighters. Korean Air, one of the world’s largest cargo operators, now holds orders for 33 A350s in total, including 20 A350-1000s, seven A350Fs and six A350-900s, alongside 39 A321neos on order. (ah)
