Teleport and SF Airlines Forge Strategic Air Cargo Partnership

• Partnership with SF Airlines strengthens connectivity between China and Southeast Asia, and opens new opportunities to the U.S. and European markets

• SF Airlines gains access to Teleport’s logistics capabilities to support international expansion into Southeast Asia

Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 2023-Oct-03 — /Travel PR News/ — Teleport, the market leader for air logistics in Southeast Asia, and SF Airlines, China’s largest air cargo carrier by fleet, have signed a bilateral interline partnership to leverage on each other’s extensive air network to better serve their respective customers – Teleport brings to the table deep logistics access into Southeast Asia, and SF Airlines the largest express network within China and outbound into European and North American markets.

This partnership has already moved significant cargo volumes for customers of both parties on the combined network.

Teleport, the logistics venture seeded by Capital A Berhad is actively adding third-party airlines to its  air logistics network to expand into key airports such as Kuala Lumpur and Bangkok from China, while extending network reach into new markets such as Europe and the United States.

Pete Chareonwongsak, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Teleport says, “This partnership is in service of our continued efforts to add valuable third-party airline partnerships to Teleport. We are looking forward to supporting SF Airlines to expand their cross-border product in Southeast Asia.”

“In turn, our partnership with SF Airlines, the largest cargo airline in China not only strengthens our regional connectivity within China but also extends our market reach into Europe and the Americas, connecting our network globally beyond Southeast Asia. This will help us better serve our customers needs, deepen our end-to-end capabilities, and ramp up our ability to scale our business to better serve the region.”

“This collaboration reflects our relentless commitment to revolutionise air logistics in Southeast Asia and beyond – to provide our customers with a faster, more affordable, and uncomplicated go-to choice to move things across Southeast Asia, and now globally.”

SF Airlines operates a formidable fleet of 84 freighters serving 90 global destinations, both present and past. Their international network includes destinations in Europe, the United States, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia, among others.

Li Sheng, Chairman of SF Airlines, added, “We’re delighted to partner with Teleport, a market leader in the Southeast Asia region. This partnership allows us to deepen our network access into Teleport’s wide network reach and frequency into Southeast Asia as well as key Asia Pacific markets. We look forward to this partnership in further strengthening our commitment to continuously expand and strengthen our air-logistics service capability”

Teleport is the current market leader by volume of cargo moved across Southeast Asia and boasts the largest air logistics network in the region, utilising the surplus belly space of 204 wide-and-narrow-body AirAsia passenger aircraft. Additionally, Teleport inducted the first of three Airbus A321 Freighter (A321F) aircraft in July, to further solidify its leadership position in the region.
