SF Airlines, China’s largest air cargo carrier, has expanded the size of its freighter fleet to 80, the carrier announced Sunday.

A Boeing 767-300 widebody freighter arrived Sunday at Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport and joined the fleet of SF Airlines, the aviation branch of China’s leading courier enterprise SF Express, according to the carrier.

Sunday marked the 30th anniversary of the founding of SF Express. It has made stable progress over the past decades by expanding its global express services to 84 countries and regions.

Headquartered in Shenzhen, SF Airlines was founded in 2009 as China’s first private air express carrier. Around 30% of its freighters are widebodies.

The company’s expanding fleet will enhance the carrier’s capacity at home and abroad. It is currently operating 150 cargo flights a day on average.

SF Airlines, which aims to intensify efforts and promote high-quality development, will continuously expand its fleet size and strengthen its air-logistics services, the carrier said.
