Jade Cargo International has launched new flights to and from Istanbul, Turkey from end-October with regular scheduled twice weekly flights from Shanghai Pudong Airport to Istanbul Ataturk Airport with continuation to Amsterdam.

The Turkish industrial capital figures prominently in Jade Cargo’s strategic vision and is a logical extension of its European services, said Su Xiufeng, executive vice president Finance and Corporate Affairs, Jade Cargo International.

“Istanbul constitutes a balanced market,” stated Reto Hunziker, executive vice president Sales & Product. “Jade Cargo and its General Sales Agent have been successful in identifying import and export potentials of the Turkish market to China as well as to Europe (Amsterdam). We are confident that our offer to the Turkish air cargo market will thrive and grow as Jade Cargo further develops its global network,” added Hunziker.
